Not necessarily. I've seen this several times in my career when big
acquisitions involving two companies with competing products were
involved. The Sun FAQ on the Oracle site states:

"The transaction is subject to certain conditions, including Sun
stockholder and regulatory approvals, and customary closing
conditions. We expect the transaction to close this summer."

If the deal doesn't get fully closed with the necessary approvals
before JavaOne, the companies must operate in public as if it may not
happen. They can be making preparations for the transition internally,
but, they won't be broadcasting publicly the planned changes until the
deal is officially closed.
