Uhm, for the reasons I stated, that Oracle doesn't mind if our industry implodes in return of a $1bn API copyright payout. Is that the sort of attitude you want to reward with your mindshare?

If the above concern isn't cogent to you, then perhaps their poor custodianship of other open source projects might convince you instead (Open Office and OpenSolaris).
