Sun to open source Java?

[Conrad Knauer]

Just FYI to anyone who missed it or wants to see it again, its
available on http://suntv.feedroom.com/

Scroll down to "Channels", click "Announcements/Events" and select
"Java - Open & Free"

The viewer is some Flash-based thing, but for most of the clips there
are MP4 (video) and MP3 downloads.  The first file, "Live Event
Coverage" is the entire almost hour-long video (a warning- its just
over 550 MB!)

Click the arrow next to "Displaying 1-8 of 15" to see the rest,
including one of Mark Shuttleworth :)
