John, would you mind reading the code reviews Olga has published? The
controversial /usr/gnu/bin builtin ARC case was not part of them.
The only ARC cases the putback would cover are:
PSARC/2009/414 AST versions of fold, mktemp, pathchk, & tty
PSARC/2010/078 xgrep
Both have been approved by PSARC. Code review was finished, too. I
would like to hear which other rules need to be obeyed. My company was
interested in becoming a major contributor to Opensolaris but this
scandal is going to ruin it.
