I haven't even read it very closely, and I normally answer most of the questions. It uses most of the same text, but I would have no idea if the differences were relevant to your question or not. As I understand it, Sun went off and made the SPL without consulting mozilla.org. Given that, asking us to support their licence is a bit rich. Gerv
