Sun Java Desktop System (*)

Baigent: “The #9 Reason that Sun is Setting: Messing with the Java Brand: … the ill-fated Sun Java Desktop System … [it] was no more about Java than is Mac OS X (which, like JDS, contains a Java SE runtime)”

Yup, that was about the time I left Sun, rather gladly as there was clearly some

‘When I use a word,’ Humpty Dumpty said, in a rather scornful tone,’ it means just what I choose it to mean, neither more nor less.’

going on. It was a totally inane name, the Sun Java Desktop System simply wasn’t a Java desktop system, everyone knew it, nailing the word Java onto everything whether it had anything to do with Java or not was fingernail-pullingly painful. It should have been shot down by an independent advertising watchdog

DEV300_m47 results, down 98 methods as bfshrink02 and sb109 get integrated, stoc, cppuhelper and configmgr no longer have any unused methods. binfilter’s unused list shrinks to effectively unused destructors which indicate leaks rather than code to be removed. sc continues to increase however. xml2cmp stuff will get removed in cmcfixes57.

The pap language code refers to both of the Papiamentu/Papiamento dialects, whose spelling differs. Of the major three islands speaking it we have:
Papiamentu
+ Curaçao
+ Bonaire
Papiamento
+ Aruba
Where, Aruba is a former Netherlands Antilles territory with an assigned territory code of “AW”, and the other two are current (for the moment anyway) Netherlands Antilles territories which has an assigned territory code of “AN”, so the glibc locale of pap_AN presumably should best be used to indicate the Papiamentu dialect rather than Papiamento
