Oracle has nominated Brazilian user group SouJava to fill the vacancy left by the Apache Software Foundation on the Java SE/EE executive committee. SouJava will be represented by Bruno Souza, a well-known figure in the Java community. The JCP oversees the development of the Java standard. The ASF resigned from the committee due to what it considered unreasonable control of Java by Oracle. The nomination drew praise from Simon Phipps, former chief open-source officer at Sun Microsystems, where Java was first developed.”]
