If the server does not wish to make this information available to the client, the status code 403 (Forbidden) can be used instead. The 410 (Gone) status code SHOULD be used if the server knows, through some internally configurable mechanism, that an old resource is permanently unavailable and has no forwarding address.

The 25 most powerful people in networking

Send to colleague

Bill Joy, founder and vice president of research,
Sun

B. JoyBill Joy is one of the industry's leading visionaries, innovators and influencers.

Sun is a pioneer in distributed, platform-independent client/server computing, and Joy has led Sun's technical initiatives for a number of years. He is the driver behind the ubiquitous Network File System, the business and technical strategy for the Java programming language, and, most recently, the Jini technology for networking distributed systems using Java.

Joy's importance is sure to grow even more now that Sun has made the controversial decision to maintain a tight grip on the technical course for Java rather than hand off that work to an international standards body. Sun decided to keep Java in-house to control compatibility among various Java-based products, speed Java development and maintain its copyright on the technology.

As he has done up to now, Joy will play a major role in Sun's further work on Java and in its decision to keep it in-house or open it up to the industry at large.

Meanwhile, Joy is instrumental in the open source movement, in which operating system software source code is freely available to the industry for education, alteration, enhancement and improvement. Joy's work at the University of California at Berkeley on the Berkeley version of Unix is viewed as an early example of open source operating system software. And currently he's working on Sun's Community Source Licensing Model, which is designed to let companies share intellectual property in source form to facilitate cooperation with customers, partners, educators and researchers.

And while he juggles that, Joy will continue his power agenda on researching new methods of human/computer interaction, new microprocessor and system architectures, and the application of complex adaptive systems, quantum computing and cognitive sciences in computing. Indeed, Joy's power only increases as Sun competes with Microsoft to set the technical direction for distributed computing in the age of the Internet.

No doubt, it'll be a joy to see what this guy comes up with next.
