The following reply was made to PR kern/150036; it has been noted by GNATS. From: "Pedro F. Giffuni" <giffunip@tutopia.com> To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org Cc: Subject: Re: kern/150036: [rpc] Sun RPC license has less restrictions now. Date: Fri, 26 Aug 2011 12:22:27 -0700 (PDT) It happens to be that Linux/Oracle developers working on NFSv4 took FreeBSD RPC code and along with some modifications relicensed all the code under a BSD license. With Xin Li's help I have been able to find this commits: http://git.infradead.org/users/steved/libtirpc.git/commit/775078e1201b9d218793f397d5dafd4ea89a5e02 http://git.infradead.org/users/steved/libtirpc.git/commit/4f4ada08b780c27398b0749b7965fd248a7f3b99 http://git.infradead.org/users/steved/libtirpc.git/commit/ba3945e2c7828be7926fd55d50f03db97dc7e022 The first commit says: "Replace the Sun RPC license with the BSD license, with the explicit permission of Sun Microsystems"
