It's not so much a conspiracy theory as a well documented public argument between Apache and Sun. You can decide who's right, but there's neither conspiracy nor theory there.
I disagree. It is a conspiracy theory about the implications of the naming conventions currently being used by Sun.
The "argument" between Apache and Sun is hardly well documented. He cites a two year old open letter from Apache to Sun, and then in a follow-up article indulges in a great deal of armchair lawyering.
The cited links to Sun developer blogs don't seem to support the argument being made one jot.
