I don't see how they could.  Unlike MS they're not "changing" java.

However - I do see Google as the number 1 reason for us not having a
(*&#((* JAVA 7 JSR yet.  All because Android is Apache Harmony under
the covers, and if they relaxed the field of use restrictions like
Apache wants, then Android can call themselves Java without having to
pay licensing ( or something I believe ).

I'd love to know some more concrete details of the implications ( I
could be totally wrong on things here ).
