Well, it looks ok, but it can and does continue to change.

As long as Sun can license the code to be the most compatible with other open 
source software, I could really care less what type of license you put on it.

If we have issues with GPL, or Debian, or GNU, or FSF, or similar, I don't see 
that as being healthy for us in any way.

If GPLv3 would get OpenSolaris closer to being accepted, there could be some 
merit with it. I think it's clear that the CDDL raised several issues for 
OpenSolaris.
