I guess I should have stated my initial concern better.  I've had to
use several Oracle products in the past (PL/SQL & 9i), and they
weren't developer friendly.  I'm worried about the JVM becoming less
open than it currently is.  I can see a lot of technologies that drive
the open source world, and this group, being compromised

*Java language documentation
*Will NetBeans be developed any longer?  Oracle has their own Java
IDE, and it sucks royally.
*Will Oracle stop providing the JVM and JDK for free?  This will have
a HUGE affect on continued JVM adoption and WORA in ten years.
*Will Java continue to be open source?
*What the hell is going to happen to JDBC?

Of course, I won't even begin to get into MySQL issues.  Time to
install Postgres...

Has anyone here been able to install Clojure on IcedTea?
