| James Gosling: on the Java road ...
| --------------------------------
|
| I've been inescapably tagged as "the Java guy",
| despite the fact that I havn't worked in the Java
| product organization for a couple of years
| (I do still kibbitz).
|
| These days I work at Sun's research lab about
| two thirds of the time, and do customer visits
| and talks the other third.
