Java will be Open Sourced latter today.

  • The license is GLP v2 plus an Exception (you can link your non-GPL code to it)
  • From Java SE: Hotspot, javac and JavaHelp will be released today
  • JME will be released fully, including the test cases that form the JME compatibility kit
  • JEE (glassfish) will be released under GPL also, besides the CDDL that it already is under
  • In the near future other software will be announced
  • Right now you’ll basically have a tarball of the source, and a read only subversion
  • eventually they will use Mercurial for source control
