The study also identifies preferred development tools and
unveils on which platforms enterprise level developers would use
Open Source & Java.

“CMP Media Inc.’s E-Research Unit has released a new study of
the market’s perceptions of Open Source & Java. The report,
called ‘Open Source & Java – Where is it Headed?’, unveils
enterprise-level developers’ perspectives on key characteristics of
Open Source & Java, its potential risks and barriers, and who
should drive a Java specification effort and act as open source
gatekeeper.”

“Open Source & Java is a hotly debated subject at the
moment. We wanted concrete data to help determine how real the
pressure is among developers to make Java truly open source,”
states Mary Sommerset, Director of Research/E-Research Unit.”
