Borland no abrirá su código fuente a la comunidad Eclipse

Parece que finalmente era todo un bulo que corrió como la polvora.

John Kaster el gurú de la programación de Borland ha respondido a estos comentarios de la siguiente manera:

"I will be generous, because of the tendency of the register to be sensationalistic, and just say that this is a really major case of someone jumping to the wrong conclusion.
We are planning on building the "JBuilder experience" on Eclipse in addition to its current Primetime implementation. Taking that information and stating that "JBuilder is now open source" is extremely irresponsible, in addition to being plain wrong.
The Register is definitely living up to its tagline as being "The Hand that bites IT." Hopefully most people will recognize their tendency to exaggerate situations and not place too much stock in their misconceptions.
The first two sentences of his article are, well, totally his own bad analysis, rather than based on anything anyone at Borland would say."

Como podeis ver, las intenciones de Borland de cambiar su IDE de desarrollo para pasar de "Primetime" a algo parecido a Eclipse se han exagerado. Una mala noticia para todos los desarrolladores Java, el hibrido hubiese sido algo favorable para todos.
