Like OpenSolaris, the source released for Java, under the name OpenJDK, was the source to the next release, JDK 7, which still isn't out yet as the mainstream release, but is still in development. They have built a JDK 6 release out of the OpenJDK sources as well now, which is widely used in Linux releases. > Today, if you go to sun.com, oracle.com, or java.com, to download JRE, JDK, > or the source code for them, you'll find that the source code is released > under SCSL, Try http://www.openjdk.org/ -- -Alan Coopersmith- alan.coopersm...@oracle.com Oracle Solaris Platform Engineering: X Window System _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
