For those of you who don't subscribe to NetBSD-SPARC... -Pat ------- Begin Forwarded Message ------- Apparently [fwd from a friend]... Sun Microsystems is going to release the Solaris source code under the same license as Java ... you can have the source code but you must provide Sun with any bugfixes. Any binaries must pass a Sun compatability test and you must pay Sun if you ship any commercial binaries. http://www.zdnet.com/zdnn/stories/news/0,4586,2215357,00.html This might accelerate development of usability on ultra 2, ultra 5, tcx framebuffers, etc. --*greywolf; -- "When are people going to wake up and perceive people as people, instead of giving us convenient little labels, trying to force us to conform to convenient little molds and perceiving us as convenient little threats?" -- greywolf@starwolf.com ------- End Forwarded Message ------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-sparc" in the body of the message
