Sun to donate Cluster code
Sun Microsystems is to begin donating its Solaris clustering code to the open-source community, the latest move in the company's ongoing strategy to eventually make all of its software freely available.

Known as Open High Availability Cluster, Sun will release its Solaris Cluster source code over the next 18 months through the High Availability Clusters community on the OpenSolaris Web site. Developers can use the code to help them build clustered and high-availability applications and services.

Sun will make the clustering source code available under its own open-source license, CDDL (Common Development and Distribution License), said Paul Steeves, director of Solaris marketing at Sun. There are no plans to also provide the code under the GNU general public license as Sun did with Java. That situation might change, if, as rumored, Sun decides to also provide OpenSolaris under GPLv3. The third version of the GPL is due to be finalized later this week. OpenSolaris is currently offered under CDDL.
