Oracle's Android Claims Cut By 98%

Posted by timothy on from the can't-we-call-in-some-tactical-hurricanes? dept.

tomhudson writes "Groklaw is reporting that Oracle was ordered to reduce its claims against Google from 132 to 3. In a further ruling, the judge has ordered that 129 of those claims will be permanently barred against all past and current products. Additionally, the judge has asked both sides if, in their opinion, after they have reduced the number of claims, a trial is still worth holding, or if the case is now moot."

    Nonono --- the end will be near when Slashdot's fortune generator gets un-stuck and shows something other than that annoying Matt Welsh quote. (And when I get some mod points.)

    You forgot that Duke Nukem is coming out this year in June.

    In this regard, this year is no different from the 10 previous ones.
