Although I hate Java and would love to see it die a horribly painful death, this article is just FUD.<p>Java is just a language, so if Oracle fucks it up, everyone can just stop using Oracle's version. There is the "official" open-source version, and if that is broken somehow (weird license?), then you can always use IBM's or GNU's implementation. (gcj compiles every Java app I have ever used or written just fine, so odds are it will work for you too.)<p>Nothing to worry about here, other than Java's usual inadequacies for serious work ;)
