Lug, Oracle suing Google, hmmmn..... unfortunately, i will not lose sleep over this The Google legal department, is probably busier than their software development division. With law suits as ridiculous, as their logo, colors, name, etc Now when a giant like Oracle joins the fray, this becomes more spicy.
of course, am no expert at copyright, but whatever the repercussions of this suit, i dont see the world coming to an end. Google should pay, if they have infringed any copyright, and if they are clean, well let the good courts decide. something tells me this law suit, is a muscle flexing gimmick for Oracle, to make them a relevant force in the Industry.

Things like these as well as http://sstallion.blogspot.com/2010/08/opensolaris-is-dead.html for example tend to prompt one to start a hold-timer on Oracle/Sun open source ventures. MySQL anyone? -- patrick
