Hello, if you look at other (technical) lists, then there is no Sunacle-silence, but real work. http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/pkg-discuss/2010-April/date.html http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/caiman-discuss/2010-April/date.html http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/on-ips-dev/2010-April/date.html http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/zones-discuss/2010-April/date.html http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/zfs-discuss/2010-April/date.html http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/zfs-code/2010-April/001101.html And these are just quick examples which I took together in 5 minutes ... So, PLEASE do me the favor and wait before you jump on that OpenSolarisMustBeSaved badwagon. Otherwise you end up in unintentionally harming it more (by replying to guesswork), than you serve it. Thanks. %mab > ________________________________ > From: Jennifer Pioch <[email protected]> > To: Chad Welsh <[email protected]> > Cc: [email protected]; [email protected]; > Indiana Discuss <[email protected]> > Sent: Wed, April 14, 2010 4:52:34 PM > Subject: Re: [indiana-discuss] [osol-discuss] So when are we gonna fork this > sucker? > > On Wed, Apr 14, 2010 at 3:44 PM, Chad Welsh <[email protected]> wrote: >> Well we have heard from one of the OGB members about forking this project to >> save it from the hands of [b]"HOracle"[/b] the multi-headed, voracious, open >> source devouring monster.
