*Please* stop conflating the OS with ON.  There are plenty of core
technologies outside of ON, and there are plenty of non-core technologies
*in* ON.  Likewise, there is plenty of engineering effort going on in other
consolidations, and there are plenty of parts of ON that are suffering from
lack of any effort at all.

I'm quite sure that axyftp wasn't targeting ON.  While most of the Sun
folks here understand that, and know what consolidations are and what the
general boundaries are, not everyone else does.  Please stop confusing
them.

Thanks,
