Java GPL'd -- 9:19 am CST, Update by A.T. Hun

I keep looking to see if it's April 1, but apparently it's true. Sun has released Java under the GPL. All of the code will be released by March of next year. I'm very interested to see what the community will do with the code. Kudos to Sun for releasing it all. Thanks Slashdot.

Ars Technica also offers some commentary on the situation.
