Regarding current support for gcc 3.4.3 in Solaris, see below:

I think here's an important misunderstanding: this is not how free software

No, their contract has not ended. (I am the initiator/manager of the contact
for the 3.4.3 compiler).
We just don't have a whole lot of bugs that need fixing

'diff csl-sol210-3_4-branch gcc_343' should go into mainline, otherwise

The prerequisite for that is to have 'diff csl-sol210-3_4-branch gcc_343'
integrated into gcc trunk

Instead, maybe that student could be participant in a thread in the OpenSolaris

The interesting question for me is this: if we're doing all this stuff,
then how come people (like Steven) still think we're not penetrating
into the community? There is a perception out there that we're not
doing enough developer evangelism and spreading of the technical
knowledge, and
A couple other questions that Steven's post brought up for me:
Have we done a device driver fest in the past (or do we have plans for
one)?
Do we have plans for online tutorials? (If so, on what topics?)
And, on the developer education front, how can we get people up-to-speed
on the source
