[advocacy-discuss] Barriers to entry (was: The OpenSolaris "Attitude")

[S h i v]

With inputs from Jim (Stephen's DTS requirements link & blog entry)
and from your inputs *I am glad* that the understanding I had (based
on #opensolaris IRC discussions) about low movement happening about
b.o.o replacement may turnout to be wrong.

I am going through various DTS related threads in tools-discuss and
the requirements list.

regards
Shiv
