indeed.

Sure - well, my thinking is that dev@ people write the code that is
apparently getting ripped off (or not?), and consequently they have an
interest in ensuring fair play, and of course better understanding the
terms they contribute under.
Is there a better list for this though ? discuss ?

Feel free to if it's relevant, at least I can try to find that out if
you have a concrete question, or at least find someone who can give a
reasonable answer. The chance of Novell licensing OO.o code to anyone is
small, since we don't own it; Sun does.
Perhaps if a conclusion of the thread is that there is a concern here,
it can be codified into a query for Sun legal or whatever - but
discussing that in public seems healthy surely ?
Thanks,
Michael.
