Dave Johnson on open web technologies, social software and software development

OpenSolaris in 2007

Paul Murphy: By the end of the year the OpenSolaris community will be widely recognised as larger and more active than the Linux community - and every competing OS developer community except Microsoft's will have copied the key ideas including its organisational structure, the core provisions in the community development license, and Solaris specific technologies including ZFS and Dtrace.

That's a nice way to start the new year. No doubt plenty of Sun bloggers will be linking to Paul's predictions.

Yes, that's an interesting one. I like another of his predictions too: "By the end of the year, the super computer listings will be entirely dominated by products built using IBM's cell processor -and the business applications performance benchmarks will be equally dominated by Sun's second generation CMT/SMP technologies." I think most people at Sun would take that split (given that the CMT chips in question aren't designed for the raw number crunching of scientific apps).
