Sun releases source code for xVM hypervisor
,----[ Quote ]
| Sun plans to release the code for its open source server-virtualization
| software Wednesday, and will make a commercial version of the xVM Server
| available next month.
|
| xVM Server can virtualize Windows, Linux and Sun’s own Solaris operating
| system on x86 hardware from such vendors as Sun, HP, IBM and Dell, says Steve
| Wilson, Sun’s xVM vice president. Previously, Sun’s server-virtualization
| strategy focused on its own operating system and the Sparc chipset, he says.

Sun fires a GPL3 warning shot
,----[ Quote ]
| Ops Center aims at managing all of this, and the first version will only do
| that when it is released on January 8th. More interestingly, the source code
| will be put out on December 10 for those into messing around with low level
| details. To shake things up a lot more, at least some of it, the Common Agent
| Container, will be licensed under the GPL3. Won't that ruffle some feathers.
