Hi Bruce, John, Dave, Peter, Phillip, Keith, Shawn, all,

We are going to share all we have. We are working on

#0.) binary packages of Conary 1.1 for snv_80+ x86 and sparc
#1.) the src patches
#2.) a modular src tree inspired by the X11 group's Xorg Makefile system, where you \
just hit "make" once, and where it fetches the deps and then patches and then builds \
conary and installs it into a proto area.

The reason I could not respond is, that I had to care for my 87 yo grand-ma all \
afternoon and evening long. Tomorrow I need to bring her to the doc, some \
(unexpected) serious health problems more, than usually. Therefore I just HAD NOT \
BEEN ONLINE for most of the day.

Had I known in advance, what an explosive discussion my comments were going to \
unfold, maybe I had been even more careful with every single char. However, I think \
there are two good results building on today's conary thread:

# we are discussing on a round board now

# the way in which the two (or more) "opposite" sites have reacted has proven, that \
there is room for improvement on all (including my) sides

Let's first get the packages and src out.
Then I need to learn a lot about how the ARC really works. Thanks also to John \
Plocher who has invited me to join the ARC process (I just found his mail from a week \
or so ago).

Thank you.

Long live OPEN solaris.

Martin
