And the winner is the OLPC! or The worst corporate changing of an acronym. To Sun Microsystems for LAMP to SAMP! or The best OS upgrade of the year. To Microsoft for their great work in gaining speed, reliability, and compatibility in their upgrade to the ill fated "Windows Vista"... "Windows XP". Users are ecstatic that Microsoft was able to release such a remarkable upgrade to Vista in such a short period of time. The most over hyped use of Linux in a project. And the winner is the OLPC!

I mean it just damn so easy to google "ordered map java" (you'll find the Linked Map, what you would expect), compare this with googling "ordered map d" or even "ordered map d language". You should be fucking stupid to brand a new concept that you can't even Google for. Same critic for the R project. Please folks, never do that again! Raphaël Valyi.
