Indeed... people try to make it sound like the MS lawsuit was about MS wanting to extend java. In reality the lawsuit wasn't so much about that as it was MS's desire to extend it in ways that caused Sun compatible Java apps to fail when run on MS VMs.
MS refused to fix the issues, and thus the lawsuit.
