I think I missed something here.  This is targeting the sfw consolidation.

The project team currently consists of 1 person.. me, and I only have an 
inbound
OSR.  I was under the impression that I would be required to provide 
support for this
project.  If there are specific enhancements you would like to see, 
please let me know.

Yes, this is older software, but it works well.  I have been using it 
for more than 7 years
at Sun, and thought it would be a good thing to share with our users.

thanks
Charles
