Judge Alsup Rules: Oracle's Java APIs are Not Copyrightable (Groklaw)Judge Alsup Rules: Oracle's Java APIs are Not Copyrightable (Groklaw)Posted Jun 1, 2012 11:57 UTC (Fri) by Wol (guest, #4433)In reply to: Judge Alsup Rules: Oracle's Java APIs are Not Copyrightable (Groklaw) by clemenstimpler Parent article: Judge Alsup Rules: Oracle's Java APIs are Not Copyrightable (Groklaw)
If you read Groklaw, you will have come across the place where Judge Alsup drops a bombshell ...
After Oracle's lawyers have been spouting about how valuable timsort is and how Google have "saved themselves masses of valuable effort" by "copying" rangecheck, what does he go and say ... ?
He's done a fair bit of programming in his time, he's learnt Java especially for the case, and he himself wrote a rangesort several times in several different languages to see how difficult it was. iirc it took him an afternoon.
Cheers,

Where did you find that, I don't see anything like that... Read the whole thing on Groklaw :D
Or did I read the wrong document... ?
