I am delighted to announce that we have completed the work to open source the core of Sun Java System Web Server under the BSD license. This project offers a sub-set of Sun Java System Web Server's features, but is the same highly scalable HTTP server that drives many of the most demanding and secure Web sites.

The project site is here .

A feature comparison of Open Web Server and Sun Java System Web Server is here .

Developer documentation and build instructions are here .

Open Web Server is a part of the larger Web Stack community within the OpenSolaris project.

We welcome your feedback and participation within the OpenSolaris Web Stack community.
