Over the wall

Mike's right, it sounds like WebGain is just throwing Visual Cafe over the wall to the open source community. But, I don't see anything wrong with that. I'd rather see old software products released as open source than see them disappear into oblivion.

Java trivia: some consider Visual Cafe to be the first Java IDE, but I think that distinction belongs to Rogue Wave's JFactory - which was introduced in January 1996 and has since disappeared into oblivion (along with the zApp C++ GUI library).
