$ curl -s https://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html | grep -A2 'id="SISSL"'
<dt><a id="SISSL"
       href="http://www.openoffice.org/licenses/sissl_license.html">
       Sun Industry Standards Source License 1.0</a>
$ curl -s https://www.openoffice.org/licenses/sissl_license.html | grep '<title>.*Version'
<title>Sun Industry Standards Source License - Version 1.1</title>

I suspect the FSF linked that page when it was hosting the 1.0 license or they typo'ed their title. The Internet Archive has 1.1 content there for their first archive on 2001-04-17. I haven't been able to turn up a copy of the 1.0 text.

SPDX carries identifiers for 1.1 and 1.2, so it would be nice to know what the FSF thinks about both versions. But with SISSL retired in 2005 it may not matter.
