Starting with this release of NCP3, there will be a small charge for all users of NCP. This is required for security upgrades, and usage of apt-clone functionality. Developing and maintaining a distribution the size of NCP takes a lot of resources, and we need your help to sponsor continued development of your favourite OpenSolaris distribution.

To those that may not visit the link, it was an April Fools Joke. We've never charged for NCP.. and it will remain free for anyone who wants to deploy it.

Ooops. These rush of "We will now charge for Linux" April Fools to me has backfired.
