Why is your take that things are going badly for google in this case?
Is that based solely on myriad's "counter" suit, or on something else?
I couldn't tell from your post.
Curiously, groklaw. I know that they're saying another thing, but I
noted a conspicuous shift of tones since the beginning. At the beginning
the idea was "Hah, those morons at Oracle have sued Google with
ridiculous arguments", while further posts were different, until they
started mentioning the idea of a "deal".
Probably I have to explain what I mean with "bad": I don't think Google
will lose in any serious way, but they will be forced to go through a
deal. Since I've always said that Oracle's original intentions were the
deal, I infer that Oracle is going to get what they want, that is the
thing is going good for them. If things are good for one opponent, you'd
describe them as bad for the other.
Of course, it largely depends on the details of the deal and there are
many variations of the theme: Oracle could get to a deal, but not what
they exactly wanted, etc...
