I did not see ksh93 discussion went anywhere. Or did it? Also I did not think
that ZFS was designed in the open. So yeah, there are some pockets where there
is some activity but as I said it is nowhere near where it should be if you are
expecting concrete, free flowing contributions from people.

I agree I don't follow each and every thing happening on OpenSolaris but I also
think that I am fair in judging OpenSolaris based on the end results (How many
significant community contributions).

I was mostly looking at it from a code changes and core design perspective - Is
there a place where people can see the commits made to {Open}Solaris code in
real-time and can comment/review those changes and then commiters can respond
to it? If there is a place like this, I think it is a good start.
