It will all come down to quality. Most opensource projects have a number of developers with commit rights and at some point, community developers on OpenSolaris will have to be trusted. But in order to be trusted, they have to be able to contribute, which kind of looks like a nasty chicken and egg situation.
That's why I favour robust unit tests where passing the tests gates the putback. Ian _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
