Oracle's no golden example as a leader in open source (let alone libre software), but they demonstrate the probable trajectory for the Microsoft projects at this point: a healthy, cohesive community of developers (developers!) using the technology in an ever increasing number of projects and platforms.
Not quite. There is some code that isn't the same due to license agreements with third parties.
Some JavaFX components are an example thereof.
There are also some enterprise features there are only available in the Oracle JVM version, in terms of security and monitoring.
What do you mean? I use VirtualBox for lots of stuff and it gets regular updates... it's also faster than VMWare in most benchmarks I've seen. Perhaps you're thinking of something else when speaking of 'not doing anything'?
However, there are still plenty of environments using MySQL (and I'd know; I maintain quite a few such environments). MariaDB is an obvious migration path, of course.
Really?! I am yet to see any production deployment of OpenJDK in any of the consulting projects I work on.
It is either Oracle JVM, a commercial license of it, or a third party certified JVM.
As for Android it has become even worse than J2ME.
And Oracle Java has also died on every platform that is not Windows. OpenJDK took over the Unix space, and Google has Dalvik and the ART implementing the JRE.
Virtualbox still exists. I guess. It has not done anything in about half a decade, though.
