that's what i meant: by naming it a windows jdk they would not imply to be cross platform. they could then argue that they implemented the same sdk for their platform only. (interesting if Oracle tried to argue that the same logic should apply in this case too).

To be fair, Java isn't and arguable was never a true cross-platform language that the media used to portray it as.

Any non-trivial app always needed a lot of platform-specific code and API calls to get that native look and feel.
