I don't think it's necessary to walk through the entirety of the software development framework (SDF) to answer your question. I think that what's emerging (for me) from this discussion is that there is a desire for a OpenSolaris project proposal to follow some amount of discussion in related community groups (via forum, or via IRC maybe). That is, the speculative phase of a project--between one pager (internal announcement) and first design review--should take part, at least in part, in a sponsoring community group first. Once it becomes clear that the initial idea has garnered some interest (or bemused tolerance), then a project proposal to -discuss is easily justified. The particular project here has a luxury of community groups to choose from: appliances, storage, and databases. If none of these community groups is responsive, that's useful feedback to the OGB, since active community groups are the backbone of the current draft constitution. - Stephen -- Stephen Hahn, PhD Solaris Kernel Development, Sun Microsystems [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://blogs.sun.com/sch/ _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
