Joe, Thank you for the feedback. First, I want to apologize for not having clearly articulated the context behind this code review.
This code move should have been part of the project to move the SVR4 packaging code to ON from the Legacy Install consolidation, but I made a mistake and forgot to check in other packages for SVr4 related deliveries. Liane noticed that this script was still imported into ON from a package over in the Legacy Install gate when she was working on the ON OpenSolaris transition. The only goal of this fix was to move the code. Yes, I know that this means that problems are just moving from one place to another but these issues must be dealt with separately. I will file an RFE to clean up the things you mentioned about the script. Regarding your question about the copyright. This file was missing copyright information so I did add that to the i.preserve script. Because this file has not been modified since it was originally putback in 1998, I used that copyright date. Please let me know if you have further questions. thanks, Moriah Joseph J VLcek wrote: > Moriah Waterland wrote: >> I think that what you saw was just cr.opensolaris.org being flaky.
