Cool.  Oracle licensing continues to evolve...  ;-)

I didn't note the date on that Metalink note; as I don't follow the Solaris
platform particularly closely, this subtlety of Oracle licensing is new to
me no matter when it was announced.

Hmmm...  "Solaris Containers" *sounds* a lot like software partitioning, but
Oracle is recognising it as hardware partitiioning.  Nice.  I wonder if
similar changes are coming for VMware...
