Not literally, just joking :) Excellent news Angad! A very well written and informative post with a lot of useful and interesting links to tools and other sites. I'm looking forward to the "new" Belenix site. My only question is how does Moinak (and the Belenix project) manage to attract and regain some of the best and highly motivated contributors such as yourself?? Let us know when the site goes live. I think the 'scoop' feature will set a new precedent for OpenSolaris related project sites. .... snip ... lots of Good Stuff snipped .... Thanks for taking the time to write this up. I know it took a lot longer to write than it does to read! :) Regards, -- Al Hopper Logical Approach Inc,Plano,TX al at logical-approach.com Voice: 972.379.2133 Timezone: US CDT OpenSolaris Governing Board (OGB) Member - Apr 2005 to Mar 2007 http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/ogb/ogb_2005-2007/
