Because as a heckler, you get to chime in on the cases you care about, and yet not end up writing opinions, or trying to come up to speed on things far outside your areas of interest; this also helps keep one's time commitment to a more reasonable level. One of the problems that PSARC has had is that those who are doing interesting work often found it difficult to justify the time commitment involved in active participation. This would sometimes lead to having folks involved on PSARC who hadn't actually delivered a project involving substantial change to the system in many years. - Bart -- Bart Smaalders Solaris Kernel Performance barts at cyber.eng.sun.com http://blogs.sun.com/barts "You will contribute more with mercurial than with thunderbird."
