  The Solaris Community has something for you :

  Simply join the users list.  It has existed for quite some time.

  Then you can begin a discussion on the topic of open source software
  that may be installed as options to Solaris.
Given the reactions on this discussion so far, it appears discussions
of anything other than blastwave would result in vehement attacks, so
I'll pass on that.  Sadly this discussion has only served to lower my
previously high opinion of the people behind the blastwave project.


  Then change the topic to "Community Software for Solaris" and continue.

  After all, the objective is to deliver a solution to the Solaris user
  and the Solaris customer.  Possibly even each other.

  That was always the idea from the beginning.
The idea from the beginning was a proposal by Keith to take a process that is currently closed and to open it. It was never about Blastwave v SFW v CCD. The arguments seen in this thread are based on personal emotion and feelings of resentment, not whats best for the end users, Sun customers, or even the community at large.

The discussion has been unproductive since 12:25pm PST yesterday when Jim accepted the seconded proposal and asked Eric to setup the project space. The appropriate course of action is to be involved in the forth going project and to help guide it such that Blastwave and SFW don't compete, but complement each other to such an extent as that is possible.

Personally, I believe that an apology is owed to, at the minimum, Keith and Steven.
