8 They haven't released 1.5.0.07 under the new license, but 1.5.0.06. When
9 given the choice of having the most recent version, or the fetchable
10 version, I choose the most recent.

12 We have made inquiries to Sun about this, and apparently it has to do
13 with some delays due to rewording the README and license to be in better
14 agreement with the Debian folks. Our contact is currently on vacation,
15 so we will hopefully get an update when they are back in the office.

17 In the future though, it sounds like they will be releasd under both
18 licenses at the same time.
