And how is that different to the license explictely stating that the venue is is Santa Clara and tough uck if you live in Outer Mongolia. More to to the point: Suppose you live in Sweden and I live in the UK. You author a piece of code and I decide to sue you over it. With what you're suggesting, we'd have no choice but to go to Santa Clara (say). At least with the CDDL as it currently stands, you, as the original author, get to chose the venue for any lawsuits. I'm betting you'd pick pick Sweden over Santa Clara anytime. :-) -- Rich Teer, SCNA, SCSA, OpenSolaris CAB member President, Rite Online Inc.
