What about Java!!??

This was posted in Nov 2007. The layer where he mentions C and C++ is now Java. The native libraries layer. Java compiles to dalvik instead of bytecode.

Ah . yah. Next time I'll watch the whole video. He mentions Java a couple times, but Java is in the applications framework layer and the applications layer. oops. Native libraries could still be C.

dalvik VM is not reading a standard bytecode? :o

Right. When talking Android just replace bytecode with 'dalvik'. Also no .class files, its .dex.

java and xml.. didn't technology advance the last few years?..

Just like IP has stood the test of time, and will for many years to come, Java and XML have matured and are now very, very ready for very, very prime time over the coming decade+.

IP + Java + XML are the critical pillars of the evolving Web.
