Install blurs the line between OpenSolaris.org the code community and OpenSolaris.com the distro community - are we moving away from that distinction? (Will other distros complain that "Install" is only the Sun distro and not Belenix, Milax, etc. that are pointed to from the current large Download icon or the new feature spot?) Are the Contribute a Package instructions ready for such prominent exposure? That page has more questions than answers, (and the answers it has are confusing in steps - you don't build a webrev, and I don't think pkg.opensolaris.org/myusername works at all) and only really tells them how to host packages if they have a dedicated repository server set up somewhere, not how to contribute to the pkg.opensolaris.org repository, which isn't accepting direct contributions yet. Report a Bug just dumps you on the bugzilla front page, which as someone pointed out last week, is really a horrible place to start, leaving you with no clue how to report bugs - the page Dave Miner made for the 2008.11 release candidates would be a much better place to link to: http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/indiana/resources/reporting_bugs/ -- -Alan Coopersmith- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Microsystems, Inc. - X Window System Engineering _______________________________________________ website-discuss mailing list [email protected]
