Maybe so the one that dies out isn't OpenSolaris?
I posted about this elsewhere in this discussion, but what if OpenSolaris goes GPL3? Along with GCC, libc, GDB, Emacs, etc. etc.? Linux is very likely *not* going GPLv3. Which kernel do you think would fare better as the free software kernel of choice to be distributed with GNU?
