Out of curiosity, how would Sun know if you copy/pasted rather than writing from scratch, assuming you use the same variable/method names or you actually did copy/paste and changed some variable/method names? I don't know the legality of how that all works. I'm just wondering. How would they actually prove a violation when you're writing code that essentially does the same exact thing?
