"Can we consider indirect revenue from the copyrighted work?"
Authored by: Anonymous on Wednesday, May 02 2012 @ 12:32 PM EDT
How many APIs is Oracle using? Can we make a list here? How
much direct and indirect revenue did Oracle make from the use
of all those APIs?

They say law is fair. It is fair enough to ask these
questions.

Hopeful that the Judge is fair.

We do not know that the Judge is biased or not. He has thus
far been fair, open and transparent. There is really no
reason to suspect otherwise.

Let's wait this out and see where the law takes us. I am
hopeful that people of the Judge's calibre usually deliberate
quite a lot on the consequences of their judgment. Let us
all hope that he realizes what is at stake in this trial and
what repercussions for the industry hangs at his doors.

"Can we consider indirect revenue from the copyrighted work?"
Authored by: jvillain on Wednesday, May 02 2012 @ 03:59 PM EDT
The best out come possible for this trial is for the jury to find Google guilty
of some thing, any thing. That will force the judge to rule on the
protectability of the API which adds some clarity to the law after all appeals
are exhausted. We need to know what the rules of the road are even if the rules
suck.

As for the judge I have a fair bit of respect for the job he has done in this
trial. My only beef is that he does lean heavy towards trying to cut the baby in
half. But that just isn't going to work here.

Let things work their way through the process before we jump to panic.
