I’m not a Java developer but I can see internally where I’m working that some changes are already happening at the Java teams after Oracle took control of Java.
Development is done mainly in Eclipse, but now a plan is in place to move to JBuilder. Some how Oracle SOA suit is coming into the picture and it is nicely integrated using Java.
As a non Java developer just looking from the fence it seems that Java will stay for a while, but Enterprises will start looking for options.

To get this achievement you need to play the New World Scenario, playing as a native american (Aztec, Iroquois, Inca) is easy to explore, if you play an European nation it may take longer to explore the map and you may run out of turns.

105. He Threw a Car at My Head!. Have any city ransomed by Barbarians.
For this one I needed to setup the game (advance setup) to have Raging Barbarians. I found 2 cities and just waited to have the barbarians to take one of them, it was just matter of time. I notice though, that you need to kill some of the barbarian units by bombarding in order to let new units to show up.
104. War Canoe Attack. As Askia, conquer a city on another continent
103. Gotta Catch ‘Em All. Beat the game on all standard map types and sizes.
– Finally, after finishing the huge map I got another one!
102. Ruler of the Twelve Colonies. Beat the game on a Huge Map.
101. Barbarian Warlord. As Bismarck, convert the Barbarians from 10 camps to your side.
For this achievement the 10 camps should be taken/converted in the same game. To get it I setup a huge map, Pangaea with only 1 player and zero city states to let barbarians to have some room to create camps.
Basically I build 3 cities and 3 sets of 2 units searching for camps, it took more than 10 camps as the chances are 50% to get it converted.
Tomorrow I will have a chat with Rafa Muñoz about trends in .NET, Agile and his coming certification as Scrum master.

Finally I won the game with all leaders and got the Master of the Universe achievement.
