[News] Sun Attracts More Developers with the GNU GPL

Open Source Embrace Gives Sun New Fans

,----[ Quote ]
| Sun's first stab at open source was via the Common Development and 
| Distribution License (CDDL) -- a modified Mozilla open source license 
| recently approved by the Open Source Initiative (OSI). That didn't go over

| and suddenly, it was getting Richard "St. IGNUcius" Stallman's blessings.
