The GNU variant also makes you liable for whatever happens the FSF legally with regard of your code.
Bad legislation on the other side of the world, and the FSF loses because of that (even if you did nothing wrong)? You pay their lawyers.
The behaviour of the FSF will be different from Sun's, but the Sun variant of the agreement is much nicer to the contributor than the FSF variant.
I'll still sign neither and yet hack on whatever I want, incl. GNU stuff and OpenSolaris. Upstream is no concern to me.
The intel 945G chipset for Atom is fully documented and has quite good open source 3d drivers.
Our company works with almost a dozen hardware vendors, and none of them are so hard to work with and so open source hostile as intel.
Try getting the documentation for the RAM controller of the chipset you mentioned.

At least in Germany, ID cards are considered to be federal property, so changing data on it could be considered malicious mischief.
The "GPL workaround" that the FSF invented, yes?
By the way: OpenSolaris is CDDL. Oh, and no-one forces you to contribute back (ie. you have the right to fork)
