could it be that Oracle and/or BSF learned from history?

SCOX started out as an effective move to scare the industry from Linux. The
longer it dragged out, though, the more ridiculous SCOX looked, and the case
only helped to solidify Linux' legitimacy. If the case took so long this time,
history could repeat, with Google/Adroid looking better and better with each
delay tactic.

It surely is partly the judge. But when you
see a company trying to delay, it usually means
they know they will not prevail or they want
only the bad PR for the other side to stay in
the air as long as possible.

Here, they think there is at least some kind
of payday.
