What a week for Open Source! First Adobe in partnership with Mozilla, announced the release of Tamarin, a code word for what is actually the ActionScript virtual machine. ActionScript is the language that their Flash player uses. Mozilla will embed Tamarin in their JavaScript engine SpiderMokey in hopes to create a new standard for web 2.0.

A little more substantial addition to the open source community comes from Sun Microsystems who announced on today that by march 2007 they will release Java under the GPL in hopes to attract more developers and extend the language’s lifespan.

Well I finally have released my first program on sourceforge. shuTi - the iTunes alarm clock can be found at http://shuti.sourceforge.net/
