Google announced it will fight against the Oracle’s lawsuit over Java in Android. Yesterday, Oracle filing a lawsuit against Google, accused that google knowingly violated Oracle’s intellectual property. Oracle said, in a press release that
In developing Android, Google knowingly, directly and repeatedly infringed Oracle’s Java-related intellectual property. This lawsuit seeks appropriate remedies for their infringement.
Treating the lawsuit as a lawsuit against the whole open-source Java community, Google responded by issuing a press statement (According to TechCrunch), which said
We are disappointed Oracle has chosen to attack both Google and the open-source Java community with this baseless lawsuit. The open-source Java community goes beyond any one corporation and works every day to make the web a better place. We will strongly defend open-source standards and will continue to work with the industry to develop the Android platform.
