If I understand Oracle's announcement correctly, sources would still
be available. The change is that they will stop publishing them
near-real-time and would release them after corresponding features
appear in official Solaris release.

====================================
We will not remove the CDDL from any files in Solaris to which it
already applies, and new source code files that are created will
follow the current policy regarding applying the CDDL (simply, that
usr/src files will have the CDDL, and the very small minority of files
in usr/closed might not have it)
====================================

The way I read it ZFS will still be available under CDDL.
