We really have to do a much better job of communicating projects
like this out to the community. Imagine if a community member had
spent time fixing bugs only to find their work wasted because there
was a secret project that renders their work obsolete.

It's supposed to be *Open*Solaris; teams have a responsibility to
be open about what changes are planned, as well as having the
ability to take advantage of community expertise in design and
implementation.
