Sun's releasing the source code to Solaris. Take a look at http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/source/index.html for more details.

The conditions look rather like the SCO ancient UNIX licences, but it's *cheaper* ($75, which includes deliverables from Sun). Warren, is this ammunition to lobby SCO to drop the prices of Ancient UNIX licenses?
