Schwartz also said 30 min. prior. Schwartz said his blog post was like a press release, an official Sun statement, but there was a lot left unsaid. "We didn't like [what Google was doing with Android], but we weren't going to stop it by complaining about it," Schwartz said, explaining that Google could have chosen to work with Microsoft, a major competitor for Sun, or an open-source Java implementation. "At least with Java they could be part of the Java community," he said. Without the Java community, Google would have to "reinvent a whole community," Schwartz said. And a few months ago the Judge said this... Sun offered Google a three-year, "all-in" royalty license for Java for $100 million, which Google rejected, Van Nest said. The offer was made when Google was just starting Android's development. But if Google tried to negotiate a license for Java, Alsup asked, doesn't that show Google knew it was going to infringe Sun's patents all along? "Tell me why there's not wilful infringement here?" The Judge asked. http://www.networkworld.com/news/2011/072211-google-sun-offered-to-license.html http://www.networkworld.com/news/2011/072211-google-sun-offe...
