I arrived in Dublin yesterday after attending a couple of congresses in Mexico.. (which basically means: no more conferences, no more sunny days and no more great food, at least for a while.. ;-) sigh!

The first congress I attended was the Debian Conference. We proposed a round table to discuss the possibility of an OpenSolaris Debian based distribution. I have to say that it was really interesting, both the round table and the corridor talks on this topic. To make a long story short: there are many Debian developers and Solaris users willing to turn something like that into reality, but there are a couple of legal problems which prevent the OpenSolaris license (CDDL) from complying with the DFSG (Debian Free Software Guidelines). So, at this moment, if we really want a Debian based OpenSolaris distribution, it seems that we have two options: either we change the choice of venue clause of CDDL, or we go ahead with the idea of dual licensing it under GPLv3.

By the way, I have uploaded my pictures of DebConf 6:
