4. What should be the update model for /usr/gnu?
I think it will only be useful if it's kept up-to-date.
Well, of course. But that's predicated on having some people who
actually work out the problems that happen over time, deliver fresh
binaries, and so on. That's always been the hard part of any freeware
bits. It's always a volunteer effort. :-<
5. What should be the policy for using GNU commands in other
parts of Solaris?
Normal stability rules still apply...
Which is one of the main reasons the Companion exisits -- to meet the
demands of those who want to be more adventuresome with FOSS than
Solaris stability rules allow.
