I shall play wait and see. They are still playing Solaris and I wonder if this will be no more than their previous source code releases with the liecense dolled up, yielding little freedom, so Sun gets cheap development, but having sole ownership. Remember, it's they who say Linux (or was it RedHat) is not open source, perhaps they will try to redefine the term.
