"i imagine", "i would imagine", "i bet" and "i feel" is not computer science. having spent daily time since November of 2002 working on KDE Solaris (back when KDE had given up on KDE with GCC because performance on SPARC was lousy, and KDE no longer had Solaris builds), i have come to certain conclusions in regards to GCC vs. Sun Studio performance (or Forte as it was known back then). insofar as i am concerned, KDE Solaris with GCC is not going to happen. every Tom, Dick and Harry can type './configure' followed by 'gmake' and build KDE on their own. my participation in this collective exercise is neither required, nor necessary. --Stefan -- Stefan Teleman [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
