I concur. If you have a Solaris box and know how to compile code (i.e. know something about C/C++ development) then this should not be a hard task. Maybe a day.
So far, we've had volunteers do this on the platforms we support. You can find the JSSH that have been contributed so far on this page. There are also links here to where to get more information on how to compile JSSH. http://wiki.openqa.org/display/WTR/FireWatir+Installation Bret Charley Baker wrote: > IE won't run on Solaris that I"m aware of, unless I suppose you run > windows emulation with Wine.
