I see them as complimentary. For example, Blastwave's packages are
supported on S8+, whereas the Companion CD presumably doesn't have
that restriction.
And putting it even more basically: choice is good!
True, but is duplication?
Remember these are the same applications, so why duplicate the porting
effort? It would be better to build a Solaris 8 and up and Solaris 10
only version from the same source. This way the porting only gets done
once and the same pool of maintainers can port more packages.
