While it is nice (and correct) to say that ksh93 passes the VSC tests for sh, that is not an indication that the sed functionality built into ksh93 will pass the VSC tests for sed. I assume that the Oracle sponsor you get for your putback for this case will verify that this version of sed passes the VSC tests before you putback. I also assume that you (with help from David and Glenn) will fix any failures detected (either by changing the code or by getting approved TSDs from TOG for test suite failures) if sed does not pass the VSC sed tests. This is what has been done with all of the other ksh93 project putbacks. - Don > > Olga > > On Fri, Mar 12, 2010 at 2:27 PM, Alan Burlison <Alan.Burlison at sun.com> > wrote: >> On 11/03/2010 00:28, Garrett D'Amore - sun microsystems wrote: >> >>> Provide an opensource version of /usr/bin/sed and /usr/xpg4/bin/sed >> >> Can you provide some information on which opensource implementation you are >> intending to use?
