In contrast to the positioning by NetApp, Sun didn't start the patent fight. It was started by StorageTek, well prior to Sun's acquisition of them. We inherited the in-flight fight, and I don't think we wound up doing much with it. I agree Sun should have just formally dropped the suit, but nobody asked me. :) And before anyone asks, I don't know any more about all of this than what's been reported online. --Bill _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
