Hi--
Actually, I am fine with the prefixes. Objective-C also works like that and well, it hasn't exactly hampered its community to scale.
I think Objective-C might have had one or two other forces behind it to compensate. :)
I have done my share of Java and yeah, sure, there are a lot of enterprise grade things in there. So many that actual development and delivery usually slows down to a crawl with lots of Java priests who confuse delivery of business value with technical show off.
For me this stuff isn't about being "enterprise-grade" or even particularly sophisticated. It's rudimentary, like bothering to remember where your car is parked. The lack of it is something that causes potential participants I meet to stop listening, especially given the power of the system in general. It's a strange discontinuity. -C -- Craig Latta netjam.org +31 6 2757 7177 (SMS ok) + 1 415 287 3547 (no SMS)
