I think it remains to be seen if we change to the license or not. A friend mentioned to me today that it was interesting that Sun licensed Java under GPLv2, but Solaris under CDDL, and that it would have seemed more logical to license them the other way around. On the surface this is true, but for those that know what is underneath the surface, know that it couldn't be GPL even if folks wanted that, due to the contents as a whole. -- Alan DuBoff - Solaris x86 Engineering - IHV/OEM Group Advocate of Insourcing at Sun, hire people that care about our company! _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
