I'd expect the SCA to have more value, simply because it's been signed.
You may be right about the site TOU being unenforcible; I don't have any
knowledge in that area. But at some point this becomes a risk
management decision (i.e., the benefits of moving forward with the new
implementation versus the risk of problems cropping up as a result of
not having the SCA on file). Since it's Sun that would be taking the
risk, I think it's Sun's management that gets to make that decision.
I can already guess the lawyers' answer to that kind of question :-)
I'm sure that keeping an exact track of who owns copyright on what will
beat any other consideration. Such is today's world.

Hmm. That's news to me.
There, on page 6 and 7, properties #335 and #336:
"Contributions to OpenSolaris need to be covered by a Sun Contributor
Agreement (SCA)."
"You will not be able to commit changes to any repository hosted on
OpenSolaris.org unless you have a SCA on file."

I *believe* that covers all kinds of contributions to the website
(except comments and posts), as everything on it is part of a repository.
