On 2 September 2005 Sun announced the retirement of the Sun Industry 
Standard Source License (SISSL). As a consequence, no future Sun 
open-source project will use the SISSL. Projects currently using the SISSL 
under a dual-license scheme, such as OpenOffice.org, are dropping the SISSL 
and thus simplifying their license scheme as soon as the development cycle 
allows.
