In summary, there is speculation that Linus Torvalds has joined the OpenSolaris Community Advisory Board (CAB) and may be announcing a fork of the Linux kernel to Sun's CDDL. However, it has been confirmed that this was an April Fool's joke and is not actually happening. This rumor was started by well-respected bloggers, but was later revealed to be a prank.

Well, it looked reasonable at first (these blogs are from well-respected people). If you look at Teer's blog and at the bottom in the commentary section, you'll see his admission to the April Fool's prank.
