Nobody is tearing it to pieces. In fact we are trying really hard to make it as simple and easy as possible to get ksh93 into Solaris and OpenSolaris as soon as possible. I don't see that anyone has yet said no to the ksh93 codebase being what /sbin/sh executes in the future. What I see people (including me) saying is to leave that part until ksh93 replaces /usr/bin/ksh. Less work for the project team now and in the future == sooner time to integration. Sounds like some people expect that all the comments that aren't "cool way to go dude!" are destructive. If you can't have a technical discussion and expect to justify why you are asking for something then this isn't the place to hang out, sorry but that is just how software development works. -- Darren J Moffat
