I searched and search and found nowhere where Jonathan or anyone said that they would "promise" that OpenSolaris would be released under GPLv.anything. All I see in the URLs you reference is hearsay from sloppy tech journalists.
So if no promise was made, how would it be broken? It may be that you're reading a poorly-written source of information, or that you're misunderstanding "looking into" or "considering" as meaning "promising to actually do it" /dale On May 10, 2008, at 10:43 PM, GNU Watch wrote: > hey Shawn this "promise" was made over a year ago by Jonathan > Schwartz and Rich Green.
