The only thing that will satisfy Debian seems like is the GPL; we can't do that. Changing the CDDL would be extremely bad, IMHO. The "choice of venue" clause some seem to balk at is actually more like a "fixed venue" clause. It *restricts* the person who owns the code and at the same time protects them against lawsuits in faraway locations. The only people who could have a problem with the choice of venue clause are those who want to sue Sun because for a lawsuit initiated by the other party you do not get to pick the venue anyway.
