Tee Hee... We've learned one or two things from sun's original companion cd distribution. But in some ways, me being the package control nazi has made our standards HIGHER than sun's in some places. For example, for quite a while, we were the only place to get pre-compiled packaged 32bit AND 64-bit libs for some things. Neither sunfreeware nor sun's companion cd offered them, even though they offered the 32bit versions. And beyond that, our "stable" packages get actual field testing in unstable, before being released to stable. I'm not aware of any public "beta" program for early access to companion cd packages before they are burned/released. _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
