A Golf Club Decision - Perl to Java  There are times that Java is the right language for an application and Perl is the wrong one - to the extent that investment in a rewrite is correct. But they are pretty rare. I was very disappointed to learn this week of a major company that is switching - not for technical reasons, but because of what one of my delegates described as a "golf club decision". Which was defined to me as a decision taken on commercial rather than technical grounds so that the big boss of company "A" - our new Java user - can play rounds of golf with the big boss of company "B" who are behind Java.  We'll teach you either!
