Sep 29, 2015 at 6:32 comment added Abhi Beckert @curiousdannii yep, the question was rewritten after my comment.
Sep 29, 2015 at 6:10 comment added curiousdannii @AbhiBeckert My understanding is that Google duplicate the Java API, which is a very different matter from porting an algorithm or procedure.

Sep 28, 2015 at 21:37 comment added Michael Schumacher The question in the title can be easily answered: No. Take any GPL-library that is called from another than its own programing language (and don't subscribe to the 'linking is irrelevant' pov). The question in the body is a different one, in my opinion - a C project can be based on the ideas of another C project as well. OP, which question would you really like to be answered?
Sep 28, 2015 at 20:40 comment added Abhi Beckert @ratchetfreak I think you're wrong. Google duplicated java without changing the same language and it's unclear wether or not they infringed copyright. Under the arguments used in that court case, I think if Google had done just a few things differently (like changing the language) then they would have had a clear victory and been ruled as not infringing Oracle's copyright.

Sep 28, 2015 at 18:45 comment added ratchet freak A project that's ported to another language is still derived from the original project.
