Oracle vs Google

I’m not going to say much on this topic, except that I think software patents should die. However, Charlie Nutter–a fellow that I met at one of Python conferences–has quite a bit to say, and it’s an interesting viewpoint considering that he worked at Sun for a while helping to move along the JRuby implementation. He’s incredibly smart, and did a good job of summarizing the patents that Oracle is claiming Google violated with Android. So I’m just going to point you there for the details: http://blog.headius.com/2010/08/my-thoughts-on-oracle-v-google.html
