Hi
 Here is the URL to raise a CR or RFE against any of the OpenSolaris 
projects. 
http://www.opensolaris.org/bug/report.jspa

Unfortunately, we don't have yet have 'webstack' or 'php' or 'mysql' 
category defined yet. I guess, some one need to follow up and create 
such a category until then you can probably create using 'other' sub 
category . Please provide the us the bug number so that we can follow it 
up as well

thanks
sriram
