I am with you when you say that people should collaborate. Although,

I don't undestand why >- /usr/gnu must not be the default first entry in PATH > >- /sbin/sh may be a link to the Bourne Shell > Bash is great and fortunately or unfortunately most applications expect bash and not Bourne shell. Also, I have compiled a number of important tools and all expect the GNU ls, GNU ld, etc. For starters OpenOffice/LibreOffice expect GNU tools. In addition, since it is not trivial to maintain 'ld' and 'as' why not adopting the GNU equivalents and forget about the Solaris things. And of course, sooner or later people should choose to use either GCC or LLVM as the official compiler. Sun Studio is closed source and not actively maintained.
