Hello, please do not delete http://opensolaris.org/os/project/conary-eval/files/ Not only are the Test-packages online for quite some time now (the hg src repo on martux.org is temporarily down), but for curiosity I still didn't give up the idea of continuing with a conary demo distro. Everything was pretty finished in February. Just need to re-start and sync with modern OS/Net, or upload the old bits. Python 2.4 is fortunately still there in snv_115, as are newer Python versions. That's a good compatibility handling by the OS/Net folks. Now that IPS has become quite stable and mature, I do not see it as whatever Anti-Sun show-off measure anymore. Just for adding some more choice to the pool of choices (in peaceful co-existance). So: When you delete dead projects, please know that conary at OpenSolaris still has an interesting future. Cheers, Martin
