They're the legal owners of the code, so it frankly does not matter what the CDDL says. The property owner can set or change any terms at any time, and is not bound by previous terms.

Hope they carry through. http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/opensolaris-discuss/2010-August/059310.html -- James Carlson 42.703N 71.076W <carls...@workingcode.com> _______________________________________________ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
