People waiting for "uptake" will get it in due time. Let's give them the
benefit of the doubt and educate them (as you guys are doing). I think
they need to see more projects using CDDL, and I think they have a valid
point. OpenSolaris uses CDDL. Glassfish uses CDDL. NetBeans uses CDDL.
That's a lot of code right there. And Open Media Commons uses CDDL, but
I'm not sure what else. What am I missing? What non-Sun projects are
using CDDL? That will be the metric that moves people looking for uptake.
The first complete program that used the CDDL (since February 2005) was star.
Since May 2006, cdrtools (cdrecord + others) use mainly the CDDL. Total ~ 8MB
of code, 260000 lines of code. 29% of the complete project is still under GPL
(mkisofs).
Of course, SchilliX, Belenix and Nexenta are under CDDL....
Ah, yes. How could I forget all that? :)
For the rest look e.g. at: http://freshmeat.net/browse/1103/
Thank you. More than I thought, but interesting how some stuff is not
listed.
I don't know how they measuure "upcome".... do they wait until 1000 useless
tiny and projects appear under CDDL?
Perhaps. I think the standard set by our critics is high. But I think
that's normal, though. We're the new guys around here. But I do think
we'll blow away the standard (whatever it is) in due time.
