< James said: > It's unclear to me what you're saying, but there's only one source tree. The same sources are used to build as appear on opensolaris.org. The source you see is the same source we see. (Minus the unfortunate but few closed binaries, of course -- some of which are even hard for us to see.)
The distributions (such as Sun's Solaris, but also SchilliX and others) are free to figure out if they want to release binaries, mixed binary/source, or whatever they need to satisfy their markets, provided that they follow the licensing issues. Are you trying to suggest that there's something magically different about Solaris versus OpenSolaris? Or that we'd hack it before releasing it? If so, why? < /James > Ok. I will try to explain more clearly (not easy when your native language is not English :) ). [U]I am only interested in running the production release of Solaris[/U] which as of now is Solaris 10. And I would love to have the source code for it so that I can make changes and recompile or analyze the working of the system. The source code that is available (nevada) should be close to whats running on my system (Solaris 10 ) but close is good enough for me. I need the "exact" code from which Solaris 10 was compiled from. We have already discussed that it's not feasible to release the source code for Solaris 10 and I get that. But when the offcial/production release of Solaris 11 is out will I be able to goto Sun.com or OpenSolaris.org and download the sources. Will I be able todo that? Can you please tell me in yes or no :) This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
