I don't understand why we need blogs and discussions about blogs trying to
guess why Linux developers don't like DTrace.  Haven't we been down this road
so many times before with Sun?....

OpenOffice
Java
ZFS
and now DTrace

Here's Sun's relationship with Linux over the years.  Rinse and repeat
this recipe every year or two....

1. Sun releases some cool technology under a lame license like CDDL.

2. Linux community badgers Sun and whines and whines about the license.

3. Sun either gives in and goes GPL or holds strong and gets
ignored/marginalized.
