Thank you, Bart.

Do you already have idea to enable client to get list of possible
values of facet from repository to enable selection-based
UI to user?

I'm considering more detailed design for l10n facet, including
whether the wildcard is enough for specifying set of locales
and whether adding some map/alias in package side
would be reasonable or not.

BTW, using current mechanism to import Nevada SVR4
packages to IPS, merging packages in IPS could
cause cases that multiple IPS packages have legacy
information on a SVR4 package.
Can I understand this will not cause problem?

Thanks,
Takeshi
