Hi Bruce, John, Dave, Peter, Phillip, Keith, Shawn, all, We are going to share all we have. We are working on #0.) binary packages of Conary 1.1 for snv_80+ x86 and sparc #1.) the src patches #2.) a modular src tree inspired by the X11 group's Xorg Makefile system, where you just hit "make" once, and where it fetches the deps and then patches and then builds conary and installs it into a proto area. The reason I could not respond is, that I had to care for my 87 yo grand-ma all afternoon and evening long. Tomorrow I need to bring her to the doc, some (unexpected) serious health problems more, than usually. Therefore I just HAD NOT BEEN ONLINE for most of the day. Had I known in advance, what an explosive discussion my comments were going to unfold, maybe I had been even more careful with every single char. However, I think there are two good results building on today's conary thread: # we are discussing on a round board now # the way in which the two (or more) "opposite" sites have reacted has proven, that there is room for improvement on all (including my) sides Let's first get the packages and src out. Then I need to learn a lot about how the ARC really works. Thanks also to John Plocher who has invited me to join the ARC process (I just found his mail from a week or so ago). Thank you. Long live OPEN solaris. Martin
