Add this: http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/77565 http://lwn.net/Articles/195167/ http://www.pro-linux.de/news/2006/10155.html There is a big campaign against the CDDL, OpenSolaris and me. It is initiated by Debian and I hope that Sun goes into public and helps to defent against this FUD. Note that Heise e.g. tries to create the impression that my work on OpenSolaris was causing the problem! So it is important that people from Sun help me to defend against these attacks. > Video times with Danese's speech is from: > http://meetings-archive.debian.net/pub/debian-meetings/2006/debconf6/theora-small/2006-05-14/tower/OpenSolaris_Java_and_Debian-Simon_Phipps__Alvaro_Lopez_Ortega.ogg > 27 minutes 27 seconds through 28 minutes 24 seconds > > Just what we needed. I am really frustrated about this incorrect statement from Danese Cooper. I did have a long discussion with Andy Tucker in September 2004 regarding possible options on OpenSolaris licensing and I know that Danese is wrong. Simon Phipps did say the right things and did even play a Video with Eben Moglen that verified that what I am doing with cdrtools (combining CDDL & GPL for mkisofs) is fully accepted by his understanding of the GPLv2. Unfortunately, the Debian people did not listen to the truth....
