Hi Doug,

libresolv2 changes removed.

I think you're only mentioning sendmail as an example of 3rd party 
software living in ONNV and this comment has nothing to do with changes 
done to usr/src/cmd/sendmail/db/config.h, correct ?

2 full days for experienced engineers means at least 1 full week for me. 
This is stuff I do in my spare time and spreading full week over 
evenings and nights is 1 month of my time.

nss changes removed.

I can file a low priority CR against the duplicities removal in each 
particular libary after the changes are in if anyone cares. The goal of 
this integration is to provide strsep() in libc. Think of the removal of 
duplicities as extra bonus.

What about libsmb changes ? What about the rest of the changes ?

Who is "we", BTW ?

Y'know, Netrep engineers are kinda hard to get these days. Also, 
"monitor" does not sound very helpful.
