Hi,

before continuing in ping-pong about this:

https://www.illumos.org/issues/3241

I would like to see discussion on the list. Status is that JDS gate is
broken by removal of sgml2roff. Yes, sgml2roff has no usage in Illumos
gate. But that is not correct answer I believe. The changeset removed
functionality used by some consumers. I know many people do not see
benefit in maintaining JDS (and GUI) in Illumos based distro. Still I do
not understand why Illumos should be stripped from functionality used by
some consumers.

Yes, not all parts need to be sitting in Illumos gate. But I do not see
any vehicle which allows moving bits between consolidations for now.

I would like to understand reason why sgml2roff was removed if the
argument that it is not need by consumers is not valid. From my point of
view it is regression in functionality.

Best regards,

Milan
