And by "makes sense" usually it boils down to investing time to patch+build components that possibly nobody uses. If people use them, then they should speak up and actually contribute to this support. I must apologies if my first email was too speculative and misled you into thinking that I was calling for ditching everything right here right now. _______________________________________________ openindiana-discuss mailing list openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
