timeline of release as free software

The article is unclear and lacks sources about the timeline of Sun publishing JDK under the GNU GPL. They announced on May 8th that they have released the source code. Was anything released prior to May 8th? Does the May 8th release cover everything? Any help would be good. Thanks. Gronky 23:36, 9 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The exact dates are probablly burried on suns site somewhere but iirc what happened was we got a couple of little bits (the compiler and vm) first. Then we got the main code drop and there has been slow development on that since. There is not yet a release that is both fully functional and free of encumberments.
