Oracle v. Google Timeline |

We have a new Timeline page where you will be able to find all the filed documents in the Oracle America, Inc. v. Google, Inc. litigation. The complaint and other administrative filings are there now, and when Google files an answer, you'll find it there. So if you read something in the media about the case, you can always verify the facts right here in the filings themselves. We've added a link to the new page in the standard menu. We also have set up a new topic, so if you are a member and you read Groklaw by topic, look for OraclevGoogle.

The question is: Is Dalvik in all relevant respects equivalent to JVM?
In a
way, yes because Android apps are written in the Java(TM) language, and compiled
by javac compiler resulting into java bytecode. These files are then converted
into Android's .dex.
On the other hand, no, because there is no Java in
Dalvik at all and nor will Dalvik run Java bytecode.
I must mention I am on
Google's side so we should dig through all prior art and rid the "community" of
this software patent mayhem.
There is good work on this Oracle vs Google
patent suit
over here .

Here is a article the examines why Oracle is right to sue Google.
Why Oracle was right to sue Google

?page=0,0
I'm on Java's side here not Oracle's or Google's. Google, like Microsoft before
them, is trying to use Java to their own ends. Google cares not for the use of
Java and in fact is trying to fragment Java and steer developers away from Java.
For that I say shame on you Google.
If Google were honest they would have said we aren't planning on using Java but
rather, plan using their own proprietary code and plan on using Google Go for
their API.
Oracle is just out for the money and trying to protect an asset that is a
revenue stream. Not criminal but not noble either. The positive outcome is
Oracle taking a leadership role for Java and leading it forward, preventing
fragmentation.[ Reply to This | # ]
