I see that solaris is being "set free" on Monday (US) anyone know how free, Its hard to find much on the Sun website.
IS it 9 or 10 and is the source being opened yet too would be good questions to start with
I believe it's 10 thats being opened. Solaris 10 is being "unveiled" on monday, and won't be formally released until january, so I'd suspect that it's not being properly opensourced until then. Which license they are using hasn't been announced yet, but I'd doubt it'll be the GPL :) Probably one of their current "open source" licenses, either http://www.opensource.org/licenses/sisslpl.php or more likely http://www.opensource.org/licenses/sunpublic.php
