All this just to show an icon and two strings in a tab pane. Visual?

Looks like marketing filler. Maybe you should tackle visualizing something much more than a string and without writing code.

William, relax. Just relax, ok. Just because it isn't your particular product doesn't mean it's "marketing filler". :-)

Stop deflecting things and respond on the first point.

:-) The first point was: "All this just to show an icon and two strings in a tab pane. Visual?"

Hmmm. Not any string, I think. The string was the name of a field in the application, exposed via JMX. I wonder why you needed to make it less than it is.

I'd be very happy to interview you about JInspired, if you like. I'm curious what it's all about and technical interviews are always interesting. It would be via email and preferably quite technical. Do you like the idea?

"Not any string, I think"

You do not get it and that is fantastic.

Interview? Sorry I think not. You are not impartial and the integrity of your Sun team is questionable. The only time I want to talk to a Sun employee is when we are discussing a replacement standard for monitoring and diagnostics in an open process with a focus on ensuring continued innovation (via competition) and not on the direct placement of some products/projects in the runtime that fail the future proof test.

There are 3 broad approaches to designing an extensible management and monitoring product. Sun picked the worst - create-your-own-tab-in-our-console. Candy to a child who knows no better.

Sure, I'd love to interview you about that. That would be very interesting.
