Microsoft and rival Sun delivered a plan to a federal judge on Monday laying out how Microsoft will obey a court order to distribute Sun's Java programming language in its Windows operating system, representatives of the companies said. After a weekend of negotiations, lawyers for both sides agreed on a joint proposal for U.S. District Judge J. Frederick Motz in Baltimore that outlines how Microsoft should comply with an order by the judge that Microsoft include Sun's Java in Windows within 120 days.
Neither Poulson nor Desler would comment on the details of the injunction until it is formally entered by the judge. Desler said Microsoft will file an appeal of the injunction with the U.S. appeals court in Richmond soon after the order is entered.
