The new release will bring exciting technical features and this is a great time to consider what else can we do to empower the NetBeans Community. As a result of requests from the comunity, we are considering the potential adoption of a new license model. We are considering releasing a future early access version of NetBeans 6.0 under a dual licensing scheme of CDDL and GPL v2 with Classpath exception. A move like this would be well received by many of the NetBeans contributors, and will benefit the community at large."

And as always a comment that the GPL/Linux/anti-Sun zealots don't like gets modded down, at one point my comment was at +3. Nothing like making my point for me that it is more important to reward a viewpoint than factual or insightful comments. Thanks!
