Yeah, but there's still that indemnification clause in the Distribution
License. The FAQ says that this really doesn't matter, the License says
otherwise. And I tend to "believe" Licenses, because that's what you
have ...

There aren't a lot of lawsuits over software because all responsibilities are always disclaimed away anyway -

One is sufficient to impair CentOS; Les, make a contribution of $10k$ and we'll get a formal opinion. If that is unappealing, tender along a update patch for the bottom of the CentOS wiki page Java installation instructions (the top still works just fine). Absent deeds, words are empty.

Anyway - as long as the opennms guys have it, it doesn't matter.

Thre is plenty of trolling and people offering casual legal opinions at 24x7 in debian-legal for many years, and presently in fedora-adv for the last couple days.
