No.. talk to Chris Mason.. it depends on the linux kernel too much
already to be available under anything, but GPLv2
If he really believes this, then he seems to be missinformed about legal
background.
The question is: who wrote the btrfs code and who owns it.
If Oracle pays him for writing the code, then Oracle owns the code and can
relicense it under any license they like.
Why don't all you license trolls go crawl under a rock.. Are you so
dense to believe
1) Only Oracle devs have by now contributed to btrfs?
2) That it's so tightly intermingled with the linux kernel code you
can't separate the two of them.
Just STFU already and go check commit logs and source if you don't believe..
