Hi all,

Just read about the open sourcing of Solaris:

http://www.opensolaris.org/

they are planning to release Solaris under an OSI approved license. Very
interesting, if they also open source the Sun Studio collection another
open source fortran 95 compiler could become available to us meager x86
users ;-)!

Cheers,
Jason
