We're not allowed to distribute diffs because our lawyers insist that every file have a license; a bulk diff between two drops would contain parts of files with potentially many different licenses but not their license headers. The workaround for this appears to be read-only Subversion or some similar SCM that will allow you to generate the diffs yourself. See Stephen Hahn's status posting in opensolaris-discuss for more on this. Note that for now you can always download both source drops and use gdiff -burN to generate what you're looking for; see diff(1) and gdiff(1) for other options. -- Keith M Wesolowski "Sir, we're surrounded!"
