Firstly my argument was not about technicalities. Googles statement that it was an attack on open source was hypocritical because they want to gain from open source and took advantage of "free" java but when it was their turn to cough up the cash they did everything but. Im not sure if its business or an American thing but it seems you forget to about being human which is sometimes mostly about doing the right thing regardless of what the law says. Overall most companies forget that simple fact. All im saying is given all the business benefits and money they made and hope to make from java and Android, it was their turn to chip and help the community. In this case like I said before they should have been ebenevolent and bought Sun.
Too me its like taking an open source library, making lots of cash and never even giving the authors a donation. Yes its legal but its overall, its disappointing. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
