NFS, past and future
The Linux NFS version 4 Open Source Reference Implementation
development effort will be led by William
Andros "Andy" Adamson, assistant director for product development
at the Center for Information
Technology Integration (CITI) at the University of Michigan.
Adamson emphasizes that CITI's Linux
modifications will be open source, and that all CITI code derived
from work done under the GNU General
Public License (GPL) will be released under the GPL. Otherwise, he
says, code produced at the University of
Michigan is usually released under a Berkeley Software
Distribution (BSD)-like license, which, unlike the GPL,
doesn't require that modified and redistributed code be issued
under the same license agreement as the original.
