Before you do that, call Sparc International (408 748-9111)
and ask them if they'll give you free licenses to use
SPARC in the OS names.  You signing a license admitting
their trademark right is perfectly adequate for them
to defend the trademark, if that's all they're doing,
and is no skin off NetBSD or Linux' back.
