[arbitrary snip] The C-Team(s) appear to have no formal presence on opensolaris.org, in any way shape or form (any of them). I'd say that until they decide to come talk to us, they don't, for our purposes exist as a body. If they want to retain the current process and control they have over their respective gates, the least they need to do is come to opensolaris.org, as a body, and function there. Until then, they appear to be entities used by Sun for the Solaris product, and completely unrelated to us. -- Rich
