Uhm ... sun is a company ;) - Sun's JDKs 1.5.0 and 1.6.0 are available licensed under the DLJ, which is not open source but re-distribution-friendly - Version 1.7.0 will be available as OSS later this year ... right now, parts of it are alredy available: The Virtual Machine and the Compiler. The rest will be opened later Summary: There is no complete Sun JDK yet! For more info, see https://openjdk.dev.java.net/ Other parts provided by Sun are available under different licenses, which makes it quite difficult to keep trac sometimes (as I proved an hour ago we stating javamail is not open source ;) ). Regards, Daniel
Let's make it clear to the users:
Is Sun Java fully Open-Sourced now ? (as I heard from someone on the net) or it's just partial OSS ? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
