Second, when we criticize Firefox, we should perhaps also mention the version number. The 1.5s are dogs. Firefox 2.0 is now included in 54+. If snv_54 is the one that integrated Vermillion, then that's the Firefox I've in the meantime learned to *love to hate*. It's a really crappy cobbled-together web browser, especially when compared to Mozilla. The fact that everything feels so cumbersome to a Mozilla user, and that, although the engine is the same, the UI is quite different don't help Firefox's case either. I guess backward compatibility wasn't a consideration. This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

Who else is interested? Thoughts? If this question were asked a year ago, I would have raised my both hands. But things have changed a lot. It took me a while to get used to not using the Moz suite, but now I don't even install Seamonkey in my Linux partitions. Second, when we criticize Firefox, we should perhaps also mention the version number. The 1.5s are dogs. Firefox 2.0 is now included in 54+. Third, and the most important IMO, Thunderbird/Lightening is now in the OpenOffice.org 2.0 roadmap. Unless someone can find a way to also do the same arrangement for Seamonkey, this is a temptation--though as great as it still sounds--that should be avoided. p.s. The SUNWqemu packages are slightly delayed (due to a spontanous travel), but are in the works. Literally and in this minute. PLease expect them tomorrow evening or something. Will the accelerator be a part of the SUNWqemu packages? Thanks Looking forward to it. -- Martin Bochnig ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

Sounds really interesting what I have heard about it so far (i.e. Studio compilers now included by default ??) However, the fact alone, that FF2.0 may indeed be a quantum leap over FF1.x (which I do appreciate) does not change much in terms of the conceptual design differences between FF(separate apps) -- SeaMonkey(Monolithic Complete Suite). I understand, that SUNW has to decide and operate economically (in reagards of what should['nt] be included/maintained/shipped). I also see now, that www.opensolaris.org is certainly the wrong place for a total userland project such as SeaMonkey. My personal response is this: For now pkg-get CSWseamonkey. Later this year (Q2/Q3 2007) anyone (users of Solaris 10++ [sparc and x86/64]) will additionally have the alternative to use the then available MRTX packages, including MRTXseamonkey.

Will the accelerator be a part of the SUNWqemu packages? Thanks Looking forward to it. The existing kqemu wrapper module for i386 and x64 - ported and maintained by Eric Lowe - will continue to work on Nevada hosts (not properly on Solaris 10 / though I'm not sure about U3). So the answer is yes. ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

So the answer is yes. The kqemu module itself is IP of Fabrice Bellard. Not sure if I can integrate it into the pkgs, probably NOT.
