[Jacek Laskowski]

Hi,

Just came across the news - SAP engagiert sich bei Apache-Projekten [1]:

"Auf der Liste der unterstützten Projekte befinden sich [...] die
Enterprise-JavaBeans-Implementierung OpenEJB"

You see we're a female in German :)

This is a truly amazing move forward :> Congratulations guys!

Jacek, what did you mean with "we're a femaly in German"? I don't speak
German, but I figure it's some prefix/something?

I was joking as I meant 'a female'. Nouns in German (and Polish) have
their kind - male, female and "neutral". It doesn't exist in English.
The finite article 'die' is because of the '-ung' ending in
'Implementierung' and doesn't explicitly points to OpenEJB itself. It
was funny though.

#openejb at tweeter and it was only this news what showed up.

BTW, would you recommend a good IT news service in German?
