[OpenIndiana-discuss] Longterm Support? And Oracle Java legal to use on OpenIndiana?

[Lou Picciano]

I"m hoping it's legal, too! We also have big plans for GlassFish on Oi. 


(Should we be concerned about anything?)

Hello List 

Anybody knows about a LTS (Long Term Support) Distribution with 
OSOL/OpenIndiana will be planed? 

At Friday I get new hardware. It's a Tyan two Quadcore Server with 32 GB 
memory and 4 x 600 GB SAS Drives in a Raid 10. Planned to deploy until 
2016/2017. I have no trust in Oracle so I wouldn't buy a License. 

And would it be secure to run snv_137 or the latest Kernel with Dom0 
support many years? I need two virtualized Boxes, some Zones and a Zone 
with PostgreSQL. 

At last. It is legal to install Oracle JDK 1.6 on OpenIndiana? For 
Glassfish or Apache Tomcat.
