Re: JDK is GPL now! a package in main requested



from lycos news[0] "Sun said it is making nearly all of Java's source
code - excluding small pockets of code that aren't owned by Sun -
available under the GNU General Public License." and "All the Java
source code is expected to be released by March 2007". so i guess we
will have to wait untill march to see exactly what we are getting form
sun. untill then, use the available free alternatives. i myself hope
that before march the free alternatives are as good/compliant as sun.

pietro.
