Looks like the build is now broken, but it is working for me here locally. The 
server is printing out the SDK version 1.0.3, when it should be 
1.0.0-preview2-1-003177. I added a separate build, checked out the same source, 
and just ran dotnet.exe --version and got 1.0.0-preview2-003133. Is there any 
way to tell if the server has had .NET Core SDKs installed or uninstalled 
recently?

"open" and "free" have so different meanings to different people :-)

The GPL contains requirements on top of what is required by the Apache Software 
License (and the opposite is also true, at least for GPLv2). An ASF release is 
supposed to mean "there won't be any obligations beyond what the Apache 
Software License asks for". That's why the license compatibility list exists.

It's not unlikely OpenJDK used the one from Harmony, but I don't want to 
speculate. In either case, Harmony should be a safe origin for us.

A big thank you for looking into this.

I'm not really familiar with the Harmony code base but you may be able to find 
tests in there as well.

My fault, I must have been checksumming the wrong file, all is good.

Many thanks
