I already did that FOUR years ago, via email, phone and FAX, and so did others. It appears that Sun management is either unwilling or just incompetent to get a plain mailing list set up. > b) start your own I am asking Opensolaris.org to start their own list to mitigate the problems caused by the unusable Sun Studio web forum software and to fill the need for a compiler related discussion forum. > Don't dilute OpenSolaris' already existing forums with more that aren't > relevant.
