Wondering about the state of Java since Oracle's lawsuit against Google? Want to see where Oracle are going to steer Java? Well, on Monday Sept 20th, you'll probably get a better idea when Larry Ellison takes to the JavaOne stage with his keynote about "Java Strategy and Directions".

Since its inception, Java has expanded relentlessly in bringing the power of secure, connected computing to the activities of everyday life. Java is the force behind applications and devices important to every aspect of both our professional and personal worlds--from desktops to mobile phones and handheld devices, to entertainment and navigation systems, to mission-critical enterprise software. In this opening JavaOne keynote, Larry Ellison, Oracle's CEO, and Thomas Kurian, Oracle's executive vice president, Product Development, share Oracle's vision for strengthened investment and innovation in Java and describe how Java will continue to grow as the most powerful, scalable, secure, and open platform for the global developer community."

 It's going to be very interesting to see what Larry has to say about Java.
