Ginny LaRoe @GinnyLaRoe

straight from the Java man's mouth --> Schwartz says APIs always free along
with open source Java language. Never proprietary.

Is Schwartz a friendly witness?
Authored by: Anonymous on Thursday, April 26 2012 @ 12:52 PM EDT
I think it would be difficult to describe Johnathan Schwartz
as friendly with Oracle ever. Sun selling to Oracle was the
buying out of a competitor in a desperate situation. I
highly doubt Johnathan has any warm fuzzy feelings for
Oracle and Schmidt and Schwartz are still on good terms.
Even though it's not like it was back when Schmidt hired him
at Sun!

Generally speaking you wouldn't be calling a hostile witness
included in your first to call list. They're trying to prove
their defense against Oracle's Copyright Claims and Schwartz
testimony is pivotal to Google's case!

I posted this question, and I've just been following it on
twitter.

He's completely destroying Oracle's case. surely they have
little hope after this.

And he said so in court, see the article for the day he
testified.
