[LUG.ro] El CEO de Oracle no sabe si Java es libre

[Martín Carr]

La trampa sigue en pie?

A ser preguntado sobre si el lenguaje de programación JAVA era libre,
el CEO de Oracle fue lento para contestar, y el juez tuvo que
presionarlo para que diga sí o no. Finalmente, dijo "no lo sé".

"Among the highlights emanating from U.S. District Court in San
Francisco courtroom 8 today was Oracle CEO Larry Ellison's response to
a question regarding the status of the Java programming language,
which his company acquired when it bought Sun Microsystems in 2010.
Asked by Google's lead attorney, Robert Van Nest, if the Java language
is free, Ellison was slow to respond. Judge William Alsup pushed
Ellison to answer with a yes or no. As ZDNet reporter Rachel King
observed in the courtroom, Ellison resisted and huffed, 'I don't
know.'"
