Would you be kind and articulate on those problems that aren't there no more?

Open JDK still exists, and Oracle JDK also exists... Companies will keep buying Oracle JDK or turn to OpenJDK, it doesn't mean everything should always be free. Java ain't going anywhere, it will keep being dominant at the entreprise level. One thing that is interesting in the world is that Licensed and priced products are almost always more solid and good quality than open-source. It's just a fact... So Open JDK is good and will keep working(feel opensource), it's just that people aren't paying attention to it, they just wanna mummer about oracle this, oracle that... Oracle is not java.
