The Inquirer article mentions the GPL but I can't find any indication of licensing terms on Sun's own Project Darkstar page, except for the SDK download which appears to be a very restrictive "non-commercial" license. They say "open source" right on the first page, but I can't find any indication that they actually mean it.
