It is clearly possible to implement ARC decisions in OpenSolaris - there
are hundreds if not thousands of examples of this happening already.

There are difficulties in external-to-Sun contributors getting their changes
in - the huge backlog in request-sponsor for instance, the lack of an external
gate that external contributors can commit to - but those do not make it
impossible, as has been proven by contributors like Roland Mainz, Shawn Walker,
Juergen Keil, Rich Lowe, and a whole lot more whose names I haven't memorized.

However, there is no request from you in the request-sponsor list at:
   http://www.opensolaris.org/os/bug_reports/request_sponsor/
so I can't see why you're complaining, since you obviously aren't even trying
to get changes integrated.
