Has anyone asked Sun whether they would dual-license the needed header files under a BSD-friendly license? Or whether they would publish the APIs via an RFC so that you could easily re-implement against that as a published spec? Sun's released lots of things like XDR and NFS via RFCs, so it's at least not unprecedented. :-) Anyone know Casper Dik well? -- -ChuckReceived on Sun Apr 01 2007 - 02:26:03 UTC
