9 I've heard that Sun recently released the Java platform under GPL, and
10 that all of their softs are going to follow in a near future. I've synced portage 2 days ago and dev-java/sun-jre-bin is still licensed against dlj-1.1 . Does anybody know how long it can take to have the license changed? Will it change at the occasion of a new release or is it applicable with the current version? Does it mean we'll have a 64-bit java web browser plugin some day?
