There are many ways in which community members can provide information 
and knowledge to the Sun OpenSolaris documentation that writers within 
Sun might not know about. For example, with interoperability, some 
community members might have more experience with using an existing 
Solaris feature in a heterogenous environment that writers at Sun don't 
have access to. Documentation on how to configure that feature for the 
particular environment would be great to have as part of OpenSolaris 
documentation.

I hope to have some draft documentation for an SFW project out on the 
team's OpenSolaris web site. The engineers and I are coordinating the 
publishing of the docs with the debut of the code on the OpenSolaris web 
site. I hope this will happen by the end of the summer.

You bet!
