I have already talked to Rich Burridge and have been given the list of
classifications to be used in 2008.11.

In the short term (2008.11) I am currently working on the prototype
tools so that the proper licensing information will be inserted per
the pending/contrib repository rules.

I also plan to have the tool insert, via somewhat manually/scripted
methods, valid 2008.11classification information.

Longer term I would like to see the automated factory component
"extract out" classification  information from existing [read 
spec/apt/web]
metadata, map that data to OpenSolaris classifications, then place it
in the database being developed by the infrastructure team members
on the JDS team.

Doug.
