I wasn't aware that changes to code had already been made, and ARC interface contract commitments are already assumed approved. I had been asked to consider committing to ARC interface contracts for multiple projects. This list seems to change daily and has included Apache, PHP5, squid ALighttpd, Python LDAP extension, and possibly other projects. To date, I have not made any commitments. > Perhaps that is ultimately the right way forward for Solaris (despite > all the work you and your team have put into this).

I agree, that currently this is random change, and that currently there are no commitments or signed ARC interface contracts with the 'OpenLDAP team' (me) to support the webstack team. Doug.
