At least it would be public (unlike the apparent long-term block we heard about at FOSDEM on Azul's OpenJDK TCK license) but it would still be a problem.
Sorry? what? I keep seeing statements both from Oracle employees as well as their supporters in the Free software community that there are no examples of any problems getting a TCK for OpenJDK derivatives.
Is that not the case?
If true, this seems like an excellent thing for the new OpenJDK governing board to address immediately.
