Mango* - King of FOSS Offerings
If there is one thing that I terribly miss after moving to this
country, that would be the variety of Mangoes
in India. I've been asked at the United States Customs if I'm importing
any mangoes. The fruit's flavor, fragrance and color is just great so I
don't blame them at all. There is even International
Mango Festival conducted every year since 1987 in Delhi. The
festival features more than 550 varieties for visitors to view and
taste.
I can talk at lengths about the fruit Mango but this entry is about
Mango*. So what is it ?

mango*
is an initiative to promote the use of Sun's (Free Open Source
Software) FOSS stack in the enterprise middleware market. Mango* is an
acronym which stands for

It's not a new prodcut or technology but a packaging of Sun's FOSS offerings that brings reliable, scalable and open software to the enterprise. The main purpose is to demonstrate and illustrate how enterprises achieve their IT and business goals using Sun's FOSS technologies.
You can taste/download mango* here, it contains the king of FOSS offerings. And don't forget to taste the "king of fruits" on your next visit to India :)

Fortunately I have tested both the Mangoes and both equally tastes great!
I definitely recommend people to taste and enjoy the juice from both the fruits.
