Groklaw has a good summary of it as well ....
http://www.groklaw.net/article.php?story=20061113114325274

The main page is http://www.sun.com/software/opensource/java/ and the page
with links to video clips from Richard Stallman and Eben Moglen. I like the
snipet of the statement that groklaw references talking about the Novell-MS
Pact.

Cheers,

Nik
