I think this point is worth emphasizing: part of the argument to make the source open and the development process open was that the development would continue--that we wouldn't stand still on whatever base of code we had and all navel-gaze and contemplate perfect tools and so forth. Progress has been made on all of Roy's points, for many of the consolidations; some of the slowness have been because of mistakes or misinvestments by me, but much of it is because stopping development was not considered a serious choice. (Put another way: if you've liked a feature since, oh, onnv_18, you probably have unconscious reservations about a 100% focus on culture change.) - Stephen -- Stephen Hahn, PhD Solaris Kernel Development, Sun Microsystems [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://blogs.sun.com/sch/ _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
