Paul Lanken suggests checking out BlastWave which, presciently it would
seem, now uses Solaris10 as its base level, instead of pursuing my
wonderment here at opencsw which very recently abandoned Solaris8 as its
base level.

I don't like mixing and matching. I get into trouble (faster) when I do
that. But following Mr. Lanken's lead I suppose I should investigate Mr.
Christensen's sunfreeware, too. I started with them lo' these many years
ago.

Bigger picture efforts would be to fight (much) harder to get all these
Sun workstations redone with Solaris10 to try and stay (not ahead) up
with the game. However, management, rightly so, is not interested in
such activity unless it translates rather directly into "positive" cash
flow. As a programmer I am not highly motivated to put together a
"business plan" whose myopic goal is attempting to link a rather simple
glut program.
