Hi Dave, Is the original wiki really under a free license? I could not find references that explicitly give anyone the permission to use it.
And a web page on the internet is by default accessible by anyone. If Oracle really wants to lock down access, then it would require Oracle Grid Engine customers to login (just like the LSF documentation). And Andy pointed me to the new documentation site and I personally don't see a problem with reading it. On the other hand, reproducing the content may be a bigger issue.
