IANAL, but I believe that in the general case, the answer is "yes".  If
you contribute code directly to OpenSolaris, you must sign a joint
copyright assignment.  My understanding is that this gives Sun the
authority to distribute the code under a different license.  You, of
course, retain (joint) ownership of the code and can distribute it under
any license you choose.
