Oracle suing Google over Java usage.

     So apparently Oracle are suing Google with patent and copyright infringement charges, relating to the usage of Java as an underpinning for Android.
     Heh!  Good luck with that one Oracle.  If you're planning on snapping up a company and using it for patent trolling (R.I.P. Sun!) you might want to get in before they open source a lot of their most interesting developments!
     I hope this case gets stomped on really quickly.  I wonder if the EFF is going to offer to support Google?  The thought of that makes me smile a little.
