9.3 billion for doing squat and not improving a damn thing. get real.

  For the record, it was not Oracle that was "doing squat". Oracles's JDK keeps improving, and btw Oracle is paying for most of it. Since Android "fork", Oracle added generics and lambdas and G1 and bazillion other improvements. The company that was "doing squat" was Google. Their shitty (and incompatible) Java implementation is where Oracle's was 6 years ago.

    I am afraid you are digressing. Oracle maintains and has rights for the language Java and Oracle JVM. Google has power over Android. codecamper isnt talking about what improvements current Java has or how how shitty the Android java is. IT is about Android itself. Google contributed most to Android, Oracle did not.

      That is not what "digressing" means. When someone talks on topic, that is not "digressing". Why not check an online dictionary, they are free and super helpful.
