(This was an administrative policy vote, not a technology vote. A technology vote requires more than a simple majority.) The balloting is interesting for two reasons. The first is the unusual number and intent of the comments by the National Bodies, which showed the ambiguity felt on this issue. The National Bodies wanted the Java technology, but were unsure that the price (acceptance of SMI as a PAS Provider) was correct or fair or even to be paid in the right currency. The second reason is that the vote by the US committee was neither to accept nor deny the SMI application, but on the reconsideration ballot to vote to affirm, or reverse a previous vote. To change a previous negative vote to a positive one needs a super majority (two-thirds of the voting members). On the US ballot, 60% of the members of the US JTC1 TAG voted to change the ballot to \" yes. \" However, since a two-thirds majority did not vote to change, the US position remained opposed. The issue was contentious, but the lack of understanding of the voting rules by the press further exacerbated the situation and made it substantially worse. Via a majority of the votes cast by JTC1 P-members, Sun Microsystems, Inc. is approved as a Recognized PAS Sub-mitter. Comments received from JTC1 P-members must be addressed by Sun, in consultation with JTC1, prior to submitting a PAS specification for JTC1 letter ballot.

In all of these activities Sun was a major protagonist, battling with or against major players in the IT industry. SMI’s experiences with its standardization initiatives provide a basis for understanding SMI’s dealings with the PAS, and why the PAS represents one organization’s response to the difficulties encountered in the formal (and informal) standardization process. This section of StandardView looks briefly at these four activities and tries to draw a somewhat sympathetic picture of the mindset of SMI management as they struggled with the need to standardize Java. significant player in much of SMI’s standardization history was the Open Software Foundation (OSF). OSF was created to, among other things, counter the Sun–AT&T alliance on SVR4 UNIX. In 1987 and 1988, Sun abandoned its BSD UNIX base and aligned with AT&T’s System 5, Release 4, agreeing to AT&T licensing terms and conditions. Other major vendors, including Digital, found AT&T’s proposed royalty scheme not in their business interests, and opted instead to create their own UNIX-like system, merging the best of BSD, SVR4, and CMU’s Mach systems. To create this software, HP, Dec, and IBM formed the OSF in 1988, with the creation of a competing and “open” operating system, OSF1, as one of its goals. Sun and AT&T immediately responded with the creation of UNIX International (UI), a consortium intended to provide “open development of the real UNIX,” based on SVR4. The UI consortium was to provide an independent arena for the future development of UNIX, away from AT&T’s control. The UNIX Consortia battles caused the spilling of innumerable gallons of printers ink, but did little to make the world safe for UNIX or OSF1. Both sides spent tremendous amounts of money proving that they, and not their competition, were the true “open system” (see the earlier section on “open systems”). This battle continued until 1994. The UNIX battles spawned other arguments, the most notorious the now largely forgotten Graphical User Interface (GUI) war. The war had dual—and innocent—beginnings. The first part of the story unfolds at MIT, where the X Window System was created in the mid-1980s. DEC, IBM, and HP all participated in furthering the X Window Systems technology, and eventually MIT realized that it had a possible gold mine. To capitalize on its relationship with its sponsors, MIT formed (in 1988) a memberfunded consortium (the MIT X Consortium, renamed the X Consortium in 1993). Because the MIT X Consortium was limited in its scope (by design), the three major participants asked their newly created consortium to create a viable windowing scheme using X technology around which they (the big three vendors) could coalesce. The idea was to provide bot","PeriodicalId":270594,"journal":{"name":"ACM Stand.","volume":"80 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124132609","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
