Obscurity doesn't help your argument.  I'm sure many of us had no clue
what you were referring to (I didn't).

Why are we still arguing about this stuff?

You've been told how to prevent new conflicts with your tools arising:
run one or more ARC cases for integrating your tools into OpenSolaris,
get them approved, implement any TCRs, consider implementing TCAs, and
*integrate* into the proper consolidation.

Yes, there are conflicts.  Yes, in order to integrate star and other
utilities you'll have to make compromises that you may dislike.  C'est
la vie.

Complaining ad naseum about how we don't do what you want us to do
(which you could be doing instead) won't produce the results that you
want.  It hasn't yet, that's certain.

Please respect the reply-to header, and please don't respond to me
