| Seems ok to me.
| For instance, we have /usr/apache2 and not /usr/httpd
| (And /usr/php5, instead of maybe /usr/popular-web-scripting-language ;-)

The squid version can be queried by passing -v argument to the
executable
|cd /usr/squid/sbin
|./squid -v
Squid Cache: Version 2.6.STABLE16

|
| Squid doesn't support pluggable user-provided modules, so all
| supported modules are known at integration and compiled in.
|

|
| No (well, source is delivered to opensolaris.org so sort of yes). The
| feature set is fixed. I believe the project team chose to include the
| interesting features, the exceptions being functionality that can't be
| compiled on Solaris today due to dependency problems.
|
| (One of the goals of the OpenSolaris Web Stack project is to provide
| knowledge on building the components on OpenSolaris so some class of
| customers will download the source & Makefiles from opensolaris.org
| and tweak their own builds, but that is not the formally supported use
| case.)
|

|
| Rahul can clarify, but I believe this mirrors /usr/apache2/libexec
| so it contains code used by squid features, not invokable by users.
These are called by the squid binary to provide different
functionalities, (It is kind of like CGIs in Webserver.)
| Rahul, do these really need any visibility to customers? Could these by
| Project Private instead of Uncommitted?
I agree, they should be Project Private.
