OpenSource efforts are invariably meritocracies. Those that /do/, lead. Ian and the OpenSolaris Project are out there /doing/. They chartered a Project to do this, found several CGs to endorse their vision, and have just delivered the first distro built by the community out of the community's source code. If you want to be involved in the democracy, go make yourself heard as a core contributer in the install and packaging CG so you can be directly involved in those decisions. Since you are a core contributer there, I assume you have done so; since you are complaining here, I presume such efforts didn't generate the results you desired... -John _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
