> I can't say whether the SVM will remain closed or not. I really don't know. There just currently aren't any plans to open it.
Then there are no reasons to expect it to be open, as long as it's commercially viable to sell it. This is Oracle we're talking about. Not a company known for its love for F/OSS.
