I disagree that "we == PSARC" for that case. Give guidance, yes, but it is not PSARC's job to make the final decision. > My "Rome" is all versions of the same basic utilities: */bin/*awk, > */bin/*grep,... (well, > maybe an exception for oawk). You have already asserted (in the CLIP case) that the GNU utilities are in a different CLIP 'burb than the Sun/POSIX ones - you can't use CLIP to justify both positions. Either they are the same "Rome", in which case they need to follow the same CLI design pattern, or they aren't, in which case they don't need to be treated the same 64-bit way. It's a fasttrack. Times out next Friday. I won't be able to make next week's Wed PSARC meeting. -John
