They've made that clear on numerous occasions And that doesn't change the fact that we literally have heard NOTHING from Oracle since the closing of OpensSolaris. 0 official statements, so I once gain ask: what do you think you were going to get in response to your questions? The reason you hear nothing from them on anything official is because it's a good way to lose your job. --Tim
