Silly question. Is there any potential for Google to move off of Java (perhaps to Go) for Android development as a result of this?

- elpool2 11y agoSeems unlikely, since the article mentions that Google has already stopped using the code in question.
- comex 11y agoGoogle stopped using a bit of code from the OpenJDK that they accidentally copied wholesale. The main claim is on the basic concept of reimplementing the Java standard library, which Google can't stop doing in a hurry.
- Splendor 11y agoProbably not, but Google has already developed a different runtime. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_Runtime http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_Runtime
