       Today, I happily announce new features and the release of the DVD-code
       into the OpenSource. After long discussions with various people on 
       OpenSource Licenses and their effects on interproject usage and the 
       effect on the authors themselves, I contacted the authors of included 
       parts in this software suite and got, in most cases their support and 
       grant on selecting the CDDL as the new license. Altough this took some 
       time, it was worth reading the different OpenSource licenses completly 
       with some support of people working in that field.

       Now I know why it took Sun so much time to offer OpenSolaris under
       an OpenSource license...if you take a license change seriously, it is
       a real hard job.

This is great, something we have all been wanting. When you are ready to 
start the next major push on this software I hope you will post a 
request for comments, since you have asked not to be given small or even 
trivial fixes and improvements at the moment.
