Free, as I understand it, but not yet open-source. I'm no lawyer, but I
read the new license agreement pretty carefully yesterday and it lists
commercial use, personal use, even ratio-based service-provider use.
And it's not just Sun Cluster.... it's all the N1 stuff, JES, Identity
Management, etc! Sun Cluster seems to be called "Java Availability
Suite" now.
Some conversation (by Sun folks) on the Info-iMS mailing list has
recently taken place regarding the eventual possibility of open-sourcing
the JES stack. They said the lawyers were looking into it. Don't know
if that means Sun Cluster might eventually be open-source of not.
