Since it seems you have absolutely no grasp of what's happening here, perhaps it would be best for you to continue to sit idly by and let this happen. Thanks helping out with the crude characterisations though. Do you understand that the OpenSolaris page has a sunset in it and the Solaris page doesn't? Have you spent enough (any) time trying to renew your contracts only to see that all mentions of OpenSolaris have been deleted from the support pages over the last few days? This, specifically, is what has been yanked out from under me and my company. This represents years of my and my team's effort and investment. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
