Oracle submits standards proposal to Java group

Personally I am skeptical of this going anywhere.
Unless we want all our IDE's to look just like Eclipse (which some
think is a good idea). An open API is very tied in with the architecture
of the IDE.

So far, Oracle has announced support for its proposed "Standard Extension API for Integrated Development Environments" from only
three vendors -- Sun, Macromedia Inc. and JetBrains Inc.

My question is will you change IDEA's open API completely due to the Oracle proposal ?
If not could you please explain what does this article mean ?
