Nice - I'll definitely build 2.12 when the specs are out.  Looking
forward to it.  2.10 was an impressive feat too... kudos to the desktop
team. Smooth build here on x86 with the Sun compilers.

Only snafus I've had with 2.10 are Startup Programs in
gnome-session-properties and the exchange connector for evolution.  The
only reason I care about the connector is because I'm the only Unix guy
in an Exchange shop :)  Interop with their groupware is nice.  I
reverted to the 1.4.6 Evolution packages in the meantime.

Adding startup programs to the gnome session has produced instability
for me, but I can't confirm that as a bug or just something goofy with
my build.  Didn't see anything in opensolaris bug database, so probably
just something on my end.

best,
Scott
