Hopefully, developers have learned to avoid Oracle like a plague after the last absolute licensing failure with JDK that caused all the FUD.
- pgwhalen 5y agoThere are plenty of reasons to avoid Oracle, but I’m not sure what about the previous licensing change was a failure. OpenJDK builds have always been free (and provided by Oracle). The community terribly overreacted and misunderstood the nature of that change, and indeed caused a lot of FUD.
