Hi

My take on it is: lets freeze the Solaris 8 trail, but keep it as a legacy
trail for those still running Solaris 8. Bug fixes to that trail is only
done if the maintainer chooses so.

We actually have a loooootttt of software which are available on Solaris 8 and not yet released as stable. So I would say, let's do one last "stable" supporting Solaris 8, then freeze it.

After this freeze, if people need Solaris 8 packages, i would support the idea to provide missing GAR description instead of providing packages for this legacy version. What i mean is that our policy might be the following

If you need a package update for Solaris 8, please use GAR and rebuilt it by your self If it is not in GAR, then we will add build description, but not provide package.

Thoughts about this ?

cheers
W.
