Let's ask this then: who updated the main page on opensolaris.org, and on whose authority was he or she acting? It couldn't have been the project team because project teams aren't authorized to do it (they have their own pages which they can edit, of course). It certainly wasn't the OGB. The only reasonable conclusion is that someone acting on Sun's behalf did so utilising the fact that Sun owns the servers that host it. In the spirit of your desire to name individuals rather than just saying "Sun" I did, using my site editor privileges, poke around the web site looking for any kind of audit log or record that would provide a concrete answer to this question. I was somewhat surprised not to find one, so I don't actually know. But I would be interested in hearing from the individual who made the update, and to know the authority under which that individual believed he or she was acting. -- Keith M Wesolowski "Sir, we're surrounded!"
