    I think before this happens, a company would purchase Oracle, because all the tech they have. Oracle has a lot of enterprise and database stuff that I'm not familiar with. The only thing that counts to me is Java. So which companies has the money and knowledge and interest to buy Java rights?

    I'm not sure if this would be a good idea, but I can see Google to buy Java. The Android system is based on Java and they need the stability of the rights to not get in conflict with Oracle or any other company again. Also this would give Java some better development I guess.

      We will finally own JavaScript. Which is hilarious.

      Does Oracle own JavaScript? I thought JavaScript was developed by Netscape and that Oracle claimed to own the rights to Java, which is not the same thing.
