One this I ( and I believe everybody? ) was very worried when I first read the claims of the lawsuit was: "Oh my god, if Oracle win, it could change the whole Software industry".
The EFF is today relaying their fears over the whole open source world that could be at threat for softwares like Samba - that EFF mentionned - but many others like NTFS drivers, or interoperability layers that make deep use of the claimed "APIs" to work.
Hope that the judges will come to reason about the implications of their decision.
