Please, change the release binding to Minor. Not to be heavy handed, but I will immediately derail this at a Patch binding. (For all you OpenSolaris folk, the only difference is not allowing this to be backported to Solaris 10.) Also, since there isn't a meeting on 7/2 (and the 4th for us yanks), please extend th time-out to 7/9. I can't tell people what to discuss, but there seems to be a universal opinion among the voting members that this is a black and white choice - It's the SVr4 way, or the BSD way. I'd suggest folk restrict comments to the black and white issues and avoid doing any invention (in the forum). - thanks - As for myself, I want to take another shot convincing others that this can cause incompatible failures. If I fail on that, I'll still probably derail this, but by that time, it will probably not require additional discussion and I'll just be writing an opinion to capture the rationale. - jek3
