Hi Rachna, while I think this is a great step to have made progress on, it is, as you say, a _baby_ step. We've now had more than 2 years of OpenSolaris out in the wild, and more than that courtesy of the tonic pilot project. To date, it appears to me and many others that there has been sod-all progress towards getting an open bug/rfe tracking system operational. I am aware that there have been funding issues from the Bugster side. I'm past caring, really. If there is no significant involvement of people from Sun's Bugster team - and to date I have not observed any such involvement - then the OpenSolaris community appears to be doomed to live with something which is less than second best. That is not acceptable to me and many others in the OpenSolaris community. What other, concrete steps are you and the Bugster team taking to assist with this process? frustrated, James C.
