Cyril, That's great news. I'm glad to hear you were successful.
The Sun Labs team is committed to helping the OpenSolaris PowerPC community develop. Brian Horn's earlier response to your query is an example of how we can help. Clearly, the source code contributions already made to the community are another. If you or anybody else in the community have specific (the more specific, the better) questions regarding the Sun Labs code, we will do our best to respond. As noted previously however, the Sun Labs team is a tiny research organization within Sun with very limited resources and committed project deliverables. As a result, despite our best intentions, we will not be able to respond to every OpenSolaris PowerPC question which comes up. That said, we want this community to grow and prosper and will do our best to help make that happen.
