I've earlier expressed my opposition against the direct export of such project names and now even machine names to the opensolaris website. I believe it adds a barrier to entry for those willin gto participate and not knowing where to look. It seems as if a lot of high technical, interesting, content may be hidden under the muskoka cloak. >[EMAIL PROTECTED] does not fit the bill, sorry. Neither does >SKML. The intent was to have a broader-reaching technical discussion list. >Linux is a kernel; OpenSolaris is an *os*.

By the same argument "Open Solaris is not a lake in Canada" and the name muskoka is equally in appropriate (or even more so). >Getting back to the topic of this thread, I'll throw a random suggestion >out there: tech-discuss. So is the intention of this mailing list to be: - all things technical, where no other project/community is appropriate. - the same, but only pertaining to ON and not install, JDS, X, etc. - or is there an intended overlap between this list and others and is it just "everything technically interesting that is close to the code". Should it perhaps be on-tech-discuss, core-tech-discuss, ??? "tech" just seems to generic; somewhere I am picking up vibes that JDS and install may not be the intended audience.
