If Java becomes assimilated into the Borgacle, then how does the ease and openness of developing for, oh, say, Android change? Are others seeing a less open future or am I paranoid?
- ShabbyDoo 17y agoAndroid only uses Java as a specification, so you're safe there. More generally, I think there are a lot of big players who are willing to spend a lot of money to keep Java free and open. IBM is the most likely savior should the world need one. From a game theory standpoint, Oracle knows this. So, they're not likely to do anything too greedy.
