Ask HN: despite the Oracle/JVM saga, do you still start projects on the JVM?
Really curious here: do you still start projects on the JVM these days ? Are you concerned about having to pay fees later on, or any other issue ?
A client of mine is considering such a project (desktop app), but we're really wondering if we should be concerned.
- ithkuil 16y agoI am and I will. Considering the amount of companies relying on JVM I don't really worry about having to pay anything for writing an application for the JVM platform. Perhaps I'm wrong but I feel that the only possible scenario or legal problems is in the development of alternative implementations of the JVM, although I'm pretty confident that Oracle will not find any solid legal ground there.
