Sun's only hand in development, Java, is being threatened by Android. I think the main thing is that Google is trying to move the standards away from the JCP. I've never been a huge fan of Java and I think their community process sucks. I don't know if that reason has been Sun, but I've always hated Sun's position with Java. Now, the article is talking about a potential lawsuit against Google. While I dislike the idea of any single entity running the whole show (in this case Google), I like Sun even less when it comes to how Java has been handled. I am hoping that Google's involvement here can actually provide improvements to Java, rather than leaving it a blotted SOB language to use.
