If anyone wonders, the license is still there (and I've reminded the legal people about it a couple of times) and I would not hope that anything would happen about it soon. Caldera is not in the best shape and after the last few layoffs people have their hands full with other things to do. In any case, the sar cources are extremely UnixWare/OpenUNIX-oriented and I think that it's easier to rewrite sar from the man page than try to port it. -SB To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
