[ I attempted to post a message similar to this on May 12th, but it never
showed up in the archives nor did I get a copy back via the list as
I usually do for my posts. I'm posting again, so if the moderators
just missed my previous email, please just delete that one and mod
this one through instead. Thanks! ]
I'd encourage people to not go off too far in speculating about the Oracle
v. Google case, and/or worrying about how it relates to GPL enforcement or
anything like that. The case is remanded back to the lower court, and until
a new jury considers the fair use defense, there is not that much to say.
(IANAL and TINLA, of course.)
But, I admit that I did in fact write a blog post and record and audcast
about the topic:

http://faif.us/cast/2014/may/13/0x44/
.. so maybe there is a *little* something to be said about it. :)
