        I don't think that was Ed's point.  I think he was looking for
        sufficient context in which to read the docs.  As I said, when
        I wrote most of this stuff, it was for people who alread understood.
        Perhaps unfortunately, most internal stuff in the past has
        been limited to internal only distribution -- at least until
        it was shipped.  That's changed and dragging the internal stuff
        out sometimes is more challenging because not all the context
        is easially available.   I think the two primary references
        are available and should be linked into to the opensolaris
        docs soon:
