I started this thread with some trepidation, especially the "chilling"
part. But it looks like we got to share our thoughts, if maybe a
little OT at times.

Yeah, I don't think this is going to affect Android. My guess is that
they'll settle before it goes to a jury. I suppose it would be fair
that Oracle monetize the Java IP it got when it bought Sun, but isn't
Oracle rich enough? I think Oracle is going to have to tread lightly
to avoid alienating the open source community. I wonder what deal they
have or would strike with IBM, which has a pretty deep stake in Java?
