Nice to see so many people actually willing to do it, I thought I would have been slammed for this thought! :) Anyway, correct me if I'm wrong, but I think I've seen the SmartOS boot eliminated this... So my guess is: what file should I change if I don't want it in my own systems updated from sources? How should I manage the modified files not to be rewritten when updating the sources? :) btw, I loved the ideas: changing Oracle in Sun, and making the statement black LOL Gabriele. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Da: Albert Lee A: [email protected] Data: 21 febbraio 2012 1.38.18 CET Oggetto: Re: [discuss] DEBUG enabled On Tue, Feb 21, 2012 at 12:05 AM, Garrett D'Amore wrote: I don't think substituting Sun for Oracle is a worthy enough result to justify the risks associated with the change (which are purely non-technical). So I'd oppose this effort. Its only worth doing if we can eliminate the message altogether, but as I indicated, that requires a rewrite. - Garrett On Feb 20, 2012, at 3:55 PM, Alasdair Lumsden wrote: On 20 Feb 2012, at 23:46, Garrett D'Amore wrote: Haha! Actually I think both of these may be problems. As Richard Lowe said, I'm not sure this is a big enough problem to worry about. Its annoying sure, but at the end of the day, its not really that big of an issue. If you care enough about it, feel free to reimplement the functionality in the file from scratch, and then we can nuke the file *and* its copyright. :-) I checked, and the only change between the logsubr.c file in onnv_137 and illumos-gate head is the copyright change: --- /tmp/logsubr.c_137 2012-02-20 23:46:33.518520532 +0000 +++ /tmp/logsubr.c_head 2012-02-20 23:47:12.418541185 +0000 @@ -20,8 +20,7 @@ */ /* - * Copyright 2010 Sun Microsystems, Inc.

But, IANAL, it might require two commits - one removing the file, immediately followed by one adding the older one (to avoid hg generating a diff that is a copyright notice removal). If people agree this is valid within the terms of the license I don't mind doing a webrev + nightly + RTI. But if that's not sufficient then rewriting it from scratch can be left as an exercise for someone with more time to burn than I do :-) Yeah, simply replacing the file with the older version, even if permitted by the licence, seems at best slightly dishonest - it was updated to inform people of a real copyright transfer. I'm with Rich here - the motivation for this could only be childish. -Albert ------------------------------------------- illumos-discuss Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/182180/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/182180/21175541-02f10c6f Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?&id;secret=21175541-29e3e0ee Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
