Which restrictions do you see preventing the distribution of a DTRACE-enabled GENERIC kernel binary? I would refer you to sections 3.1, 3.4 and 3.5 of the license[1], which state: - the CDDL is mandatory on the source code distribution; - the original copyright notice for the original work must be displayed; - binary distributions of CDDL-licensed software may be relicensed; The requirement for the last is that the new license not conflict with the CDDL. The CDDL doesn't otherwise restrict use, modification or distribution and includes the ability to sublicense the original code as well as and derived works. Someone please point out the conflict. I don't see one.Received on Wed Nov 22 2006 - 19:24:01 UTC
