Hi all,
        To help those working on fixes for the next release of 
OpenSolaris, a new branch has been formed for the on-going 0SOL 1003 work. 
The two branches of slim_source are now slim_1003 for the 1003 release, 
and default for on-going development.

Policy of what to do for a bugfix or new feature: 
------------------------------------------------
*If you are working a 1003 bug (blocker bug), you will have to merge and
  push to both branches, default and the 1003 branch (slim_1003). Please
  ensure you use  the same commit string for each push

*If you're working a bug not for 1003 or pushing a new feature, then
  you will merge and push to slim_source as before (into the default branch).

Mechanics of what to do for a push:
----------------------------------
*To work in the new branch, pull slim_source as before:
  hg clone ssh://anon at hg.opensolaris.org/hg/caiman/slim_source

*To update your working view to use the slim_1003 branch run:
  hg update -C slim_1003 (this will overwrite any changes in your
                         Mercurial workspace, so beware)

*To see which branch you are working in run:
[0] clayb at xsplat:hg branch
slim_1003

*The branch of changes will show up in hg log and hg tip:
[0] clayb at xsplat:hg tip
changeset:   710:9ff1a0d6d32b
branch:      slim_1003
tag:         tip

         Branched slim_1003 for OpenSolaris 1003 release

*To work in slim_source use Mercurial as before in the default branch
[0] clayb at xsplat:hg branch
default

Where to find build status:
--------------------------

  for slim_source and will have a dashboard at:
  http://indiana-build.central/release_slim_status.html

External Developers May Use:
*Push by push builds of slim_1003 will be available, done by Hudson, the
  same as for slim_source and will have a dashboard at:
