Says who? Do you think that everything on the Earth must be open source in
terms of GPL? Then it's communism.

However, compiling and putting Fluxbox on OpenSolaris then would be the viable
option, since the licensing for GNOME cannot be changed. (I don't think I'd
want to convince anyone to change GNOME either.) :)

Thanks. This is what I envisioned would have been the answer to this question

You can't make a "OpenSolaris 2010.x Community Release" because of the

Frankly, this is one of the biggest arguments in favor of assigning
copyright to some single entity for all contributions to a project. It's
what allows multi-licensing of an entire codebase. IHNSHO, anyone

assignment. *Who

You would have to get every person & corporation owning copyright in every GNOME
module to agree to that, the odds of which are staggeringly high against you,

This is a fact.

Changing a license is amazingly simple in theory, yet complex enough
in practice to be nearly impossible:
The owners of the current copyright simply need to decide to relicense
or dual license their code under a new license.
Unfortunately, the tens of thousands of people who have contributed to

Out of curiousity, is it possible to convert the GPL-licensed GNOME on
OpenSolaris to the CDDL or MIT licenses? We are NOT talking of LGPL here.
I'm well aware that any code or really 'software' deemed "compatible" with the
GPL underneath another license "compatible" becomes GPL or at least, GPL
Me and OpenYourSource.com community are willing. And you? OpenSolaris need an

Of course the question then becomes where does the image for this WPAR come

OpenSolaris is my favorite Operating System. Is consistent, well documented,
stable and has a amazing management. Reject this project is a nonsense decision!
Back to Linux is insane. Best buy Solaris 10 and install on my pc.

Did Oracle discontinue OpenSolaris laptops program with Toshiba? The Web page

It looks like Oracle is not interested in OpenSolaris advocacy anymore. The PR
