I am waiting for the existing ones to be fixed - some are dated 1999. I don't 
think there is point in running duplicate benchmarks and filing new ones. Most 
of them are quite important to fix (fork/exec for e.g.)

Let Sun create a workable, scalable development model around (Open)Solaris 
first. I pity the words "request" "sponsor" "ask" above. It's going in the same 
direction as OpenOffice.org - it's working but only with Sun employees doing 
the major heavy lifting, community presence is not that big and thus the whole 
thing doesn't scale upto the point where it should ideally. (I have commented 
on this before.)
