Prophetic, it would seem.

Sorry for not responding sooner -- I'm only now going through about a
month's backlog of email-to-respond-to.

Where would you begin?  I'm assuming we're talking about a whole new

infrastructure hosting the OpenSolaris development currently?  Bug
tracking, mailing lists, etc?

Speaking of sf.net, why not host it there?
