Gosling Interview
Business Week has an interview with James Gosling. I like this response.
Q: Many people have tried to take credit for Java's success over the years. At this 10-year anniversary, are there any unsung heroes?
A: One of the things that has always kind of bugged me is everyone talks about me as the guy who created Java. That was true up until about 8 to 10 years ago. I wrote the first thing. But you look at the engineering teams we have today -- we have many really talented people that nobody ever hears of.
