In my previous post about Java as the platform of the future I may not have been too clear on what I actually meant when I said that developers in other languages would (should) be using Java under the covers. What I thought I had made clear was that if you've got a perfectly good wheel, why reinvent it if it can be relatively easily and opaquely re-tasked for another vehicle? Some concrete examples: if you've got a high performance message service implemented in Java, you don't need to reimplement it in Ruby in order for those developers to be able to take advantage of those capabilities. Likewise for transactions and other core services.
