I don't see how the case is closed

The issue of damages is still outstanding and I'm sure Oracle would like to
appeal that number at the same time as the rest of it.

Also maybe I misunderstood something (that is highly probable) but I understood
Google's fair use arguments also applied to the 9 lines and the 12 test files.
That still seems to be hanging out there. It also seems that de minimus aptly
describes 9 highly functional lines that perform a standard software check
representing 0.3% of the file they were in and while there may be a number of
ways to do that, it doesn't seem like there would be than many efficient ways.



Of course the Judge still needs to enter a final judgment.
