"The company is very close to announcing that it will put the mobile
(ME) and standard (SE) editions of the Java platform into the GNU General
Public License (GPL), with the Java Enterprise Edition and GlassFish
reference implementation (currently open-sourced under Sun's Common
Development and Distribution License, or CDDL) to follow, several industry
sources said.

The OpenSolaris operating system will continue to be offered under the
CDDL, according to several sources. The news could come as early as next
week, they said"
