OKay, two successful tests. Is there a way to collect success or
failure data or would that constitute a privacy invasion? Would be
nice if at the end of a success that the pkg software could fetch a
url like pkg.opensolaris.org/success_SUNWipkg_$version$ or similar.
Same for a failure.

I'm just thinking out loud here.

Why even use the snv_xx numbers anymore? Can OpenSolaris stand on its
own two feet and just be os200805 or os200807 etc ?
