Gosling doesn't sound surprised at all.
It isn't clear whether the integration meetings Gosling referred to occurred before, or after, the Sun-Oracle deal was made. Whatever the case, I expect Gosling was asked to attend those meetings as a Sun employee, and that he explained the patent situation in an open and honest manner.
What do you think Gosling should have done? Deceived Oracle during the acquisition talks because he didn't like what they were planning to do?
dragged in to it he will have to repeat his stance on why this is something that Oracle can do in court
Where has Gosling said he won't repeat the same stance?
- allertonm 16y agoHaving been acquired a couple of times, "integration meetings" normally occur after the deal is made public but before it closes. So the decision would already have been made.
