Sun Releases Open Source XACML Language

Posted by Hemos on from the building-the-tools dept.

LowneWulf writes "An InternetNews.com article mentions that the OASIS standards group today ratified the Extensible Access Control Markup Language 1.0 specification. But even better, Sun Microsystems Labs has backed this up with an open-source version in Java on Sourceforge."

    ... They release it open source, let morons and free volunteers fix the code and then they close the source again. Same happened with various other sun products... I would take any bets for this to happen again.. The reason why they open source is because they need said people to fix and enchance it. Then they take it and sell it commercially again. Well I like such a business too..
