Hello Mike,

The draft ARC request is attached. I have added a 2 line addendum to
the ARC request about the files in the public domaind & GPL (was asked
to add in an earlier comment).

The code review is available at http://cr.opensolaris.org/~gns/sfw-expect_webrev

Responses to the earlier mails/comments below.
Please note my response to your comment about GPL2 notice to be added
to pkg copyright.

regards
Shiv

Not a single GPL script goes into the package. The GPL scripts as
noted in an earlier mail are scripts that *can be* used to test the
build results.
The author has released expect under certain terms and conditions.
Changing this to any other license is being wrong. It also misleads
the users of the package.

My initial proposal was to install it at the location where the users
expect it to be present (/usr/lib/expect5.43/).
But after checking further, I see that the static lib is not a
required item. I have removed the static lib.

I observe that some softwares have hand processed man pages already
stored while some others using -M option from install.subr
I have chosen the latter. I picked sunman-stability from pcre.
Please have a look at the code review link and let me know if the
incorporation is proper.
