I thought I would let things settle down a little
    before answering the questions that had appeared.

    First, the known missing bits:
        There are RPMs that are not included because we
        didn't develop them.  These are available in the
        normal download locations mentioned in the README.

        This is slightly inconvenient for consumers of
        the open source tarball, but doing things this
        way enabled us to avoid several legal hurdles in
        Sun's open source process.  I won't get into the
        details, but given resources this was definitely
        optimal.

    Any unknown missing bits

        There have been a couple of questions about some
        Sun Cobalt RPMs that appear to be missing.  If
        these are in fact necessary and missing, it means
        that I know who will buy the next round of beer.

        I've forwarded the questions to the beer buyer
        to be, and we will figure it out.  If any other
        items seem to be missing, I'll see any notes to
        the developer list.

    RaQ versions
        The core code for the Cobalt products is shared,
        so many RaQ parts are merely build flags away.  
        Unfortunately, the RaQ specific functionality was
        not part of this open source effort, so some of
        the RaQ interface is missing.

        We will consider options with the RaQ interfaces.

    I hope this helps,
