Solaris source code, and then that didn't really seem to materialize the
first time around? Maybe my recolection of events is somewhat blurred...
I remember this (under the community source code license). But

Also, don't discount the possibility that Sun may be talking about this in
order to achieve some leverage with the likes of (say) Microsoft. For
example, "If we don't get [xxx] from you, we'll do something to hurt your
cash cow, MS Office".. Maybe I'm just being too cynical though, but

I have the feeling that "Software Licensing Program" speaks .
You can read about the Sun Community Source License on their web site now.
It is the same license that brings the JDK to FreeBSD.
*NOT* As we read it (The JDK folks), the CSL doesn't allow us to release
