I really like to hear what your reservations are about Oracle and Java.

I would stick with pho if you could and look into html5 for the things pho does not cover.
But right now I'm somewhat bitter about java and how oracle is handling it.

Hi,

I am in the process of planning a web project.  I'm thinking possibly using Java.  To this point I have done all my web projects using PHP.  I know there will be a learning curve.


My main question is the availability of Java programmers.  It seems there is a lot of PHP talent available for PHP projects.  I like that there is a lot of availability of PHP programmer because that makes my apps supportable if I move on or am otherwise not available.  


I have not met a lot of Java programmers, so I assume they are not available the same way PHP programmers are.  In other words I think I can visit Gang Plank HQ and find a hand full of PHP programmers that I would fee good about pulling into a project.  I'm not sure I can say the same with Java programmers, however I have not paid much attention when
 it comes to Java programmers.  

You thoughts are much appreciated!!
