Sun did release the Java EE (enterprise edition) under the GPL.  Look up "Project Glassfish".  And, in fact, that code is still currently available on Oracle's web site:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javaee/community/index.html

None of which is immediately relevant to the Oracle v. Google suit.  This is a patent suit because Google didn't license Java Mobile Edition (Java ME) -- which was *not* released under an open source license -- from Sun.
