So I would like to backport the JDK8 LinkedTransferQueue to JDK6. My question is whether there could be any legal problem with that or whether that is fine. I'm working on some open source application. So all code would be open and therefore the mater could become an issue. > Here, in comp.lang.java.programmer, you might expect some technical discussion of such a backport. If I were a lawyer reading this post and considering a response, I'd be asking my lawyer about the ramifications of participating in legal discussions on Usenet. <http://www.cobar.org/index.cfm/ID/0/subID/4820/May-an-attorney-ethically-participate-in-real-time-%22chat%22-forums,-list-server-discussions-and-Usenet/>
