Welcome to a forgotten corner of the ancient forest.
Oracle has announced that the JDeveloper 10g Java developer tool for Oracle will be made available for free. The product used to cost $995 per developer seat.
Rebecca Hahn of Oracle says
The move marks Oracle's increased dedication to its developer tools and allows the company to compete on an even playing field while simultaneously promoting its standards-compliant technology stack to the developer community.
Whilst some view the move as a response to the growing popularity of the Eclipse IDE, Oracle says
We’re actually doing some work in the Eclipse Foundation as well, but as far as JDeveloper, we really don’t even view it as a direct competitor in a way to Eclipse in a sense that JDeveloper is much more than an IDE
