How can OpenJDK etc carry on
if Oracle gets the SOCTUS to come down on their side in the API Copyright case against Google.
They will have rights to the API. The code behind it might be a cleanroom regen of the original SUN Java but the API will be their property.
An Oracle win could very well sound the death knell for all Java implimentations and products based on it.
I wish Oracle would just die quickly.
