Sorry, I did not mean to take the discussion off-topic.  I think you
and Stuart have done a great job of explaining the situation, though,
and I do appreciate the information.

Even if Sun doesn't make any more SPARC workstations, I suspect it would
be reassuring to Sparc users out there that we do still care about
providing continuing support for users who are already using existing
machines.  You have highlighted ways people in the community can get
involved, and it is great to hear that we have already done so much
work.  I suspect whether Sun would consider releasing any future Sparc
hardware would probably relate to how much of an active community is out
there.  So there is probably some relationship here.
