It's pretty hard to care about a company that craps all over it's development
community. About all I expect these days is that they'll do more to make me
recommend other choices in the enterprise than their products. But hey, that's
just business right?
New license sleaze just means more
It is not clear if Sun provided enough information to invalidate all the
patents that ZFS was threatened with. PJ @ Groklaw does not appear to have
updated the status of the ZFS dispute since 2008.

This would only matter if they were still worth doing development for. It's not
a wise investment of time at this point, and probably never will be again. This
matters to dimwit suit wearing fracktards, but to everyone else it's pretty
irrelevant in the bigger picture.

I use ATI4850 with OpenSolaris. It works. But no 3D. Only 2D.

Given the new license details for what will be Oracle Solaris 11
Express, it appears I won't be upgrading my snv_134 osol to Sol11
express (since I'm not a developer), and so am looking forward to
details about OpenIndiana.
I have one question at the moment: Will there be ext3 and/or ext4
Bug 7467 is still active in snv_134. Do I need to report this to 'OpenSolaris
or Oracle M Even More Unbelievably Unbreakable than Linux Solaris 11?

Who do we report bugs to!!!??

This is interesting. b147 you say? Cool!
It is not based on illumos. When will it be based on illumos?

To give you an idea of how self destructive this is, I am now moving all of my
operations to ubuntu (not my opensolaris desktop/file server though!). Today I
was able to get my sunrays running on 9.10 and tomorrow I will move them up to
10.04. I can buy licenses for my sunrays for 100 dollars
Will it be compatible with the newest sunray software (srss 5 (4.2))?

If SunRay Software runs on OpenSolaris b134 then theres a fairly good chance it
will run on OpenIndiana. It's something we would be very keen to ensure works
on our /stable
Excellent. I am glad to hear you think that may be valuable.
Sadly though srss 4.2 does not work (easily, or even moderately easily with
b134). Not saying somebody couldn't figure out why and create simple scripts
to make it work though!

Hi,
I really think people like you are reading too much into the license and over
reacting. So Oracle is going to give Solaris, Solaris Express, etc away for
free
for non-Production use. They say things like it's free for development,
testing,
etc. Why is this not flexible enough? Hell, just
