I just don`t see this in a political context that needs complex legislation. Nor do I feel it`s particularly productive to always be trying to influence Sun`s corporate decisions in this or that direction. OpenSolaris is a development project, and it seems to me we ought to be focused on development and the things that support development and not get distracted by politics. Sun started all this by opening a bunch of code, and the company asked the engineers and mangers involved to open some infrastructure and processes and work in the open so we could involve others and build a community. From here on in it`s our job to do just that -- to build a community. I happen to believe that given the history and characteristics of this project that we should try a lightweight governance that encourages flexibility and can grow over time if needed because the most important community building activity is development itself. That`s my view. And that`s what I base all of my decisions on. Jim
