Re:Don't moan about Sun

Yeah, this is a good point. Under the GPL, Sun would at least have to make their modified versions available to their users. In practice, this would probably have meant Sun wouldn't have forked it at all; rather, just used it and contributed to it.

And if they contributed to it, they'd probably be more likely to fly its developers around to conferences. Sad but true.
