I thought you all might like to know...
 
Within two hours of notification, Google had removed the bogus sponsored link to Oracle. I just can't believe the audacity of Oracle... Well, I take that back. Yes I can.

Dear Brian -
 
Thank you for pointing out the trademark issue with "jboss".
 
We do not proactively sell competitor names, goods or services.
 
And a big thank you for informing us in a calm and professional 
manner.  You may be surprised how often the first notice comes
with 10 pages of legalese from the companies lawyers when a 
simple note would suffice.
 
Perhaps you may want to point out to your advertising / marketing
group the power of Google.
 
That term jboss and words related get searched thousands of
times here.
 
Cheers -
