If you're holding your breath waiting for Oracle to answer questions,
about all you're going to do is turn blue.  They have a policy of not
communicating about the status of their products.  Anyone with an "in"
with management would probably be forbidden to talk about it.

Take a look at how long they jerked the OpenSolaris folks around
before dumping them and ask yourself if you want to volunteer for that
kind of treatment.
