"a VM that clearly has restrictions and is owned by a litigious organization"
Indeed - if there's one thing that this case has shown it's that java is poison legally. If a company the size & power of Google is being forced to take a project the size & importance of Android places they really don't want to technically, well, that's a very big deal. And I wouldn't like to think what would happen to any smaller group that wanted to take a java technology down a path that isn't Oracle-approved.
