At least in my limited world view Oracle deserves praise when it comes to how they handled the open source stuff. I'm sure there is room for criticism, but they could have been complete assholes and they weren't.
- pgaddict 11y agoYou mean like killing OpenSolaris or sidelining the JCP, for example?
- dhimes 11y agoYes, of course, that's exactly what I mean. Sheesh.
- coldtea 11y agoSo what do you mean, then? Because that, and the Android/Java lawsuit are anything but praiseworthy. If they've done any minor good in dealing with open source, it pales with comparison to those kind of offenses...
- dhimes 11y agoI am glad they didn't shut down access to java and mysql. But after your and pgaddict's comments I did a little browsing and see what you mean. They haven't exactly been stellar.
