I think that's essentially going from "bundled" to "unbundled," which normally requires an actual EOF. It makes some sense to me, and is certainly much better than outright removal without a replacement, but I think we'd better get some ARC members to chime in on whether this is setting precedent for how previously supported software becomes unsupported and whether giving this project effectively a waiver is ok. I'm not too impressed, though, with the business arguments. Frankly, the folks who were dumping open source projects into the system years ago were told -- repeatedly -- that there was always cost involved, and ARC members were assured that this was known. Seeing a regression like this anyway is really unfortunate. -- James Carlson 42.703N 71.076W <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ opensolaris-arc mailing list [email protected]
