Thanks Stephen and Eric.
My intent is to produce a community. The development effort will be in-house,
then released as open source once it is completed.
I have been asked by Stephen Hahn to articulate how a CIFS community is needed,
meaningful, and separate.
It is needed in the sense that,

I also prefer a community, but CIFS goes beyond just the client work we're
doing and opening up. There's client and server-side, both native and
public-domain (like Samba). It's far more than just SMBFS. That's just one
implementation aspect of supporting CIFS on Solaris. Even more broadly,

I'm not sure if this is just confusion stemming from the wording, or if
there are other issues involved. But

Eric Shrock,
I want to host a community which already exists, the 'CIFS community', on the
OpenSolaris website. I want to do this since we have several implementations
that work on Solaris of CIFS already and especially since there is a native
OpenSolaris client coming out, which has been
I think it's appropriate at this point to request the creation
of a Storage community, which could be an umbrella for the
various filesystems as well as technologies such as fibre-channel
and scsi/sas.
[Incidentally, the NWS consolidation has moved a huge step closer
to being released under

I doubt the majority of people would object to have more code offered to them
for free after Sun has paid a significant amount of money/time/resources
developing it. It's like christmas all over again!
As for developing in house, It's just the logistics of getting it done with

Okay, I'll bite. Sounds like
you need to decide whether your efforts require a project
or a community. If your intent is to produce code or
a structured best practice document or some other form
of collaboratively authored product, then I recommend
that you request a CIFS project, in which case you need
to send mail
Hi Octave,
Yep, it will be supported on x86 and sparc.
Thanks for the interest.
