Interesting perspective. I'd also like to think, that the state of Java would be better under Google, as they execute on genuine visions rather than just putting lipstick on the old bloated pig. Also, I assume that even if Google somehow went through a major root- canal and changed Android's de-facto language to something else (Go?), that would still not satisfy Oracle or solve the problem. At the very least, Oracle would demand to get payed up until that change... and there are still the issues regarding the generic VM patents. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
