> I wonder if Oracle winning would reinvigorate software developement This is a future I like to envisage as well. New programming languages (for example), struggling for traction, might feel obliged to clearly open source their APIs, to demonstrate their openness. Corporates, tech giants etc. might in turn gravitate towards such more-open platforms, leading to a virtuous circle of innovation and steady migration away from technologies that try to use their APIs for extortion.
