If we are to learn lessons from Java, we should take care that its the
right lessons. The main thing I see in Java is that a lot can be
accomplished for a decent new language with a massive media blitz. But
what do you do when its no longer "new"? It has yet to be proven that
this expensively bought popularity can be maintained for any length of
time.

Java's not going to go away. But its rapidly becoming just another
lanaguage. It appears that folks are already casting about for the next
flavor-of-the month. It could be C#, it could be Internet C++...
