Some people might have heard about Sun's release of the Solaris sources under their dubious license. This license is obviously intended to be incompatible with the GPL. Therefore:
Nobody who intends to contribute to glibc must look at anything but the public header files of the Solaris libc and related libraries.
If you did or intend to do, don't send any patches. Reporting bugs is OK, but do not go into any details regarding the implementation they use. We will be extra careful to require assignments for any significant piece of work. If you assign code and embed into contributed code any knowledge of that implementation, you are invalidating the assignment. It is especially important that everybody with blanket assignments in place follows this.
