As I mentioned a little already, I think Sun should take a leaf out of Microsoft's book in one way.
Microsoft had a summit this week for their MVPs. They bring together the top minds in the Microsoft community and facilitate:
Communication: Between Microsoft engineers and the MVPs, and between MVPs
Learn: There is a chance for Microsoft to show off the "future" of their technology
You end up with a ton of blog entries from excited MVPs, a feedback loop to the Microsoft engineers, and a lot more. It is a great idea.
This year they showed a video that had Steve Balmer as Neo, and Bill Gates as Morpheus that was meant to be hysterical. Unfortunately they aren't going to put it up on the web :(
Sun should do the same thing. Get the people that matter (your prophets) together for a few days and magic will happen. Then the prophets go back to the masses and share the vision.
Come on Sun. Think big!
