Oracle and java updates

The preferred Java implementation on FreeBSD is OpenJDK, see here. Java hasn't gotten any better (quite the opposite, rather) since Oracle came along to spoil it.
 
Just like pretty much everything else Oracle touches. MySQL, Solaris...
 
There are somethings I can never understand :(

Just one question for Oracle: Why?
It doesn't cost you anything to keep it opensource especially Solaris.

Simple: because they're mean. There's a reason why even talks of Oracle acquiring Sun Microsystems already resulted in countless Sun talents resigning. Read about Oracle and related articles on e.g. Wikipedia. Oracle are no Microsoft, but they are still not nice by any stretch of the imagination. They are one of those megalomaniac companies that are just creepy.
