Orion, J2EE, Java
Does anybody know why
Orion Application Server, with the exception of a few minor bug fix releases, has stayed intact, like a dead project, for years? Orion was a very fast and memory conservative application server. Its fast startup time had made it very suitable for development environments. Orion was so great that even Oracle built its own application server based on Orion.
I wonder why they didn't keep on developing Orion after J2EE 1.3. Does anybody know?

Opera
A long time ago I had asked for
Very Persistent Opera Customizations and now I am delighted that Opera has listened and has responded nicely to my request. Opera has
released an Alpha version of Krestel (Opera 9.5) and they have now added a feature called
Synchronized which just does what I had asked for. It is not still complete. Not everything is synchronizable yet, but hopefully over time it will become better and better.

Java, Eclipse

complained about an annoying Eclipse bug. More than one year is passed, and this bug is not fixed yet.
