In fact, the suggestion of non-removable dual licensing does not work; it means there's a single license but you only need to abide by half the terms (and both bits need to stipulate that the entire license is to be retained). That's not what dual licensing is... Casper _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
