:I had no idea what ZFS was, so I googled it and found this:
:
:"...Sun's patent-pending "adaptive endian-ness" technology,
:which is unique to ZFS..."
:
:I still don't know was ZFS is, but now I know it's proprietary,
:like java, with all the same baggage attached.
:
:Sun is playing nice with open-source at the moment, but will
:they continue to play nice when their stock price drops yet
:another 50% ?  I dunno.  I hope so.

    They've released the source under their creative commons license.
    If you get onto leaf its somewhere in /archive/OpenSolaris-20051207/.
    It's spread over a bunch of places in there.
