Guys, Just want to give some updates about Songbird on Solaris.
With some tweaking, the code can now be built on Solaris and it can be startup successfully on my box here. Anyone who would like to have a try can download the binary from here: http://releases.mozilla.com/sun/Songbird-Solaris/songbird-20080305-nightly-solaris11-i386.tar.bz2. It's based on the snapshot of XULRunner 2008-02-21/Songbird 2008-03-05 and could be buggy. Just extract it and run "./songbird" should be fine.
