I admit i don’t understand the details of that case fully and have no time to waste to change that...
What i can say: To me it seems like oracle only bought Sun to squeeze out money from it’s “intellectual property” as hard as possible, giving a shit for all the(not fully finished) work Sun did in the years before to make Java a good Open Source citizen that could easily delivered in Linux distributions. The very first thing oracle did was making that harder again and limiting access to the compatibility test suite.
Oracle is a greedy company that doesn’t care about anything than making more money, no matter what it costs and no respect to any otger party in no way.
They give not the slightest F about being a good OpenSource citizen, in no area where they enter that ecosystem.
And their products might have some nice features sometimes but in the end are hard to handle/install/maintain expensive crap.
I didn’t write a 100 lines of Java since they own it, and i try to avoid it wherever i can find a viable alternative.
