They still might. The time to appeal to 'these patents shouldn't have been granted' hasn't yet arrived in the progression of that court case. Its easier (in this phase) to get this case thrown out based on selective enforcement (the idea that Sun, by not suing google even though clearly they know what they were doing, has given tacit approval, and Oracle, having inherited this tacit approval along with other contractual obligations of Sun, cannot now sue).
The case is also still being fleshed out, i.e. the case is still in the phase that both parties are still engaged in completing the wording of the exact alleged offense. For example, that copyright infringement rider that Oracle tacked on their initial filing has only recently been sussed out a bit more. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
