Please don't! If you suggest a cooperation between the BSDs and IllumOS, anything GPLed from IllumOS couldn't be added to the BSDs... and there'll be therefore a lot less interest from BSD developers to help. IllumOS' intention to release their *new* code under a BSD license makes perfect sense w.r.t. collaboration. Going the GPL-way may be a stab at evil-Oracle, and gives a kind of Schadenfreude for their current anti-community behavior, but in the long run, it will do more harm than good. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
