One of the areas that Sun believes it adds value to
the OS market is
stability and support. Therefore, Sun makes more
effort than many BSD or
Linux vendors to map out the stability/supportability
of interfaces
that we ship. You will notice that any Sun manpage
contains an Attributes
OpenSolaris is not a complete enough OS. You cannot
boot it, you cannot compile
software on it and you cannot run applications on it.
In other words, it is not yet self hosting. But it will be sooner or later.
Any way Sun goes with Solaris Express that cannot be
pusued by e.g. SchilliX

Hi!
I think a community that would cover the database installation, configuration

IMHO, having /usr/ucb anywhere other than the end of one's PATH is
an idea of dubious merit. I know some people prefer the BSD variation
of some commands, but I still don't
