It's been a long time since I logged into any Solaris machine at this point and it's unlikely I will in the future. If I do, it's very unlikely to be building software on it. I think many other folks are in a similar position because they are scratching different itches in different technical contexts. Not everyone has moved on, but those still here seemingly don't have a need to update these packages.

That is the case for many here. Professionally, I haven't had anything to do with Solaris for 8 years and like others, I only update my packages for fun and when I have the time. Please understand that this is all very time consuming and we all do not work anymore with Solaris professionally.

Fully agree with Ben. We always appreciate support to keep the project alive.
