Hi Glynn,

I have started creating a package list based on the
software mentioned below.

- A number of the software packages have different
   versions available. For example: SUNWmysql and SUNWmysql51.
   I am including only the latest version in such cases.

- A number of the software packages have different
   flavors available. For exmample: SUNWmemcached and
   SUNWmemcached-java. I am including both the flavors
   in such cases.

- The list below asks for C/C++/Fortran support. Both
   gcc and studioexpress offer this. So, I've included
   both the compilers.

If you think any of this not appropriate, please let me
know.

Thanks,
Alok
