This is the first time that I returned to reading some opensolaris list 
messages in exactly a month and a day. And then, after 1 minute, I find this, I 
don't grasp it ... :

@Garret:
"Deeds, not words" ??? Is this a bad damn joke? How many things has Joerg 
Schilling engineered over all the years? Most of the time entirely FOR FREE. 
While not even being on Sun's payroll, in contrast to yourself. So, please, be 
a bit more silent. Thanks.

@ Garret: I think you are being harsh here. And nobody bothers to assist 
Joerg?? What a community, wow. Well done. Continue to ship the obsolete SVR4 
tar, or switch to the broken gtar. You just don't deserve any better.

What a poor crap: Joerg Schilling has engineered, implemented and maintained 
excellent solutions such as star. He doesn't ask for any license fees, nor any 
other compensations. His software is POSIX compliant and compiles out of the 
box on all major UNICES including linUX, thanks to his smake system. 
And instead of seeing Sun happily adopting star years ago(!), I witness those 
un-justified discussions again and again. Is he really asking for too much when 
he wants Sun to park an employee into PSARCH-reviewing star? When witnessing 
how some of you continue to treat Joerg, I have to wonder, why he still wants 
to be a member of your project or "community". You are right, those discussions 
are indeed very annoying.
