AlanC spent some time early last year on the topic of OS.o & ARC & Consolidations, which (IMO) where clarification and policy is needed. With dozens of dysfunctional communities overlapping each other (ON, ZFS, DTrace...), we seem to have invented a system that promotes chaos and anarchy over integration and predictability, as well as a culture that values the potential whims of random participants over the long term needs of sun-corporate and Solaris. I'm not sure how to fix things without building a coalition of like minded fools that all want to run for seets on the OGB... > Something seems amiss. Without a real ON community, things are hard. Once there is such a beast, it could simply vote to require ARC approvals before any and all gate integrations. -John
