Going forward, we need to change this - everyone needs to have a
conscience of not taking the easy way out. We need to work as a team, as
a community and prove it to ourselves that we can get out of this mess.

I'm keen - anyone else? :)

Count me in, that's for sure. (More below.)

My 2 cents:

I think the best thing that could happen in this regard is to have 4-way[1] alignment at the package dependency level between a) the Solaris SFW consolidation team (which, governs the Companion CD), b) The JDS consolidation team, c) the SchilliX/Blastwave/CSW team, and d) the Belenix team.

All four obviously have huge momentum; thus, to the extent there is at least low-level dependency architecture alignment between them, we'll be able to avoid balkanization.

So Stefan, in reply to your request for input on the Companion CD:

With the above in mind, what kind of input are you looking for from Belenix developers and Blatstwave maintainers? (BTW, as of this week I am the maintainer of a couple Blastwave/CSW packages -- CSWpine and CSWimap).

[1]: I've not included Nexenta only because what I'm talking about is alignment around Solaris SVR4 package architecture, which Nexenta doesn't use.
