Hi,

this might be an unusual question in this
group, but I have no idea whom to ask. So
does anyone know what putting Solaris 10
open source did cost Sun Microsystems?

There are a lot of companies that had to
be delt with. SCO I guess, but didn't Sun
had a proper License from them anyway?
What about Microsoft. I remember that pub-
licizing ls(1) had an issue with Microsoft
and ACLs. Does any one have a clue?
I remember some presentations that this
topic was mentioned, but don't remember
which presentations and when

/Rolf
