Project Proposal:    starfish

The Starfish project's primary goal is to create synergy
between OpenSolaris and NetBeans / Sun Studio, by leveraging
the NetBeans / Sun Studio IDE to assist with OpenSolaris
driver and kernel development.

The sponsoring community group would be the Device Drivers
group.

About starfish:

Starfish is an add-in module for NetBeans / SunStudio which currently 
features
   * scsi hba, nic and raid hba device driver generation from wizard
   * device driver package and ITU image generation
   * GUI environment for remote machine kernel level debugging
   * OpenSolaris source code download and update
   * OpenSolaris manpage searching
   * nightly build configuration and invocation
   * installation DVD creation with new / updated drivers

For the next prototype we expect to add
   * source code cross reference search
   * sata hba driver engine
   * many more sample drivers
   * enhanced integration with debugging tools
   * driver source code checking

Could I create a new project page on Device Driver Community?

Thanks,
Ada
