Fwd: Re: A quick questions about ultrasparc 3 documentation

Theo is quite right. I just bothered David Miller about this and got the following.

This is indeed a stupid policy on Sun's part. An NDA to enable someone to write GPL'd, open code.

Crazy.

You are the second person in one day from the OpenBSD project to ask me this question, and I am going to give you the same answer. Please spead the knowledge so I don't have to sit here all day typing in responses.

I have docs under NDA with Sun that allows me to write GPL'd code based upon the documentation. I therefore cannot give the docs to anyone else.

And no, I no longer have any contacts at Sun that could help you guys out.
