Anybody said Java is a failure? Or that Oracle "killed" it?
Even if they did, it would take a couple decades to get at the level Cobol today it.
What I said is Oracle screwed Java up.
By alienating the community,
By not caring for security (except after all the huge negative press each time),
By not innovating at a decent pace,
By falling back on promises,
By killing off the evangelists,
By ignoring the mobile space,
and in several other ways.

Not to mention the bloody Java "API" lawsuit...
