Made a PDF clone? Sued!
Made a insertRandomProprietaryFileFormatHere clone? Sued!
Made a Wine, DOSBOX, Mono, any other sort of compatibility layer? Sued!!!
If Oracle manage to reverse and win this, it means that Oracle, Microsoft, Adobe, Autodesk and Apple will just bash everyone else (including Open Source stuff) to oblivion.
