That's a pointless conclusion. Of course its about money, but, in what
form? Maybe they think the db/corporate work is going to go mobile in
a big way, and Oracle wants to start writing apps for db management
in one of the mobile platforms. They prefer android but want to
attempt to get some say

Which is why, for the umpteenth time, Oracle is suing Google based

Indeed, in the compliant there is also a copyright thing (it's after
all the patents).
Could the copyright be as simple as stating that they did not satisfy
the copyright claims of the JDK so that they do not get to use the
patented stuff for free?

But if the main thrust of Oracle's suit is based on VM patent
infringement, perhaps using the Go native code compilers would be the
way to go. If Go was enhanced to support dynamic link libraries, then
it would still be possible to install a Go runtime once and share it
amongst all Android apps

I think its time for Google to bring their own JVM implementation.
They can implement own JVM and make it open source and controlled by
community (I mean JSR). That way, they can actually become a real
threat to Oracle Java, and will also help Google to keep developing
their products on Java,
