    Sun is really serious!!!

    I was just browsing Linux.org and came across this article:

    Really interesting read! From what I gathered, if Sun decides to go GPLv3 for Solaris, the GNU project might make it the default kernel for the GNU OS. According to Schwartz, Sun just didn't use GPLv3 for Java because it wasn't out yet, which is amazing since not everyone in the free software community seems to like it.
