Huh ? Do you mean because it is OpenSolaris or because of some apparent limitation in our hosting capability ? Exactly what do you mean by this comment ?


What I mean is that you cannot checkout any source code from the
opensolaris.org server and expect to run "./configure && make && make install"
on any platform.  If we ever want to make opensolaris code portable and
ripe for use on other platforms then we need to take steps to make it
easy for people to use it in that fashion.  Hosting it on opensolaris.org
as part of opensolaris does not meet these requirements.

discussion isn't what I'd call central to either of those groups.)
