It seems that you are missunderstaning the problem.
The star integration project started long before this mail address exists and
it was not possible to find a sponsor after Dworkin Muller left Sun.
I did never send a mail to this (new) address because it is unlikely that there
will be a sponsor as long as some people prefer to spend 100+ times the effort
on sending mail that tries to prevent the integration than I expect the
integration to take.
Let me add some technical background to also show that there is a lot of
confusion inside Sun. Lately people propose to put star into sfw but sfw has an
unclear makefilesystem and after the integration, ufsdump/ufsrestore will
depend on compilation results from the star consolidation. For this reason, it
seems that star rather belongs into ON....
