I expect the impact to be very little.

It will change choice for those that:
* have a mandatory requirement to run on Linux (or OS/X but that is not
  a server OS)
* prefer ASP.NET over other web frameworks (Java EE, PHP, RoR etc.)
* have a mandatory requirement for the web framework to be backed by a
   B$ company (Microsoft size is OK, Xamarin size is not OK)

I don't think many companies will match all those.

Not yet.

Java is still going up.

But it seems very likely that it eventually will be (eventually
programming language start to decline). Just give it 20-30 more years.

I think that would have been good for Java.

Make embedded Java SE and Dalvik/ART merge.

I don't think so. Google is also on the "HTML 5" train.
