    EOF of gnome-sys-suspend

  1.1 Project Detail

      This project proposes to deprecate gnome-sys-suspend in Solaris.

      The gnome-sys-suspend application in Solaris provides options to suspend
      or shutdown the whole system. The application was created as the
      counterpart of sys-suspend in JDS because sys-suspend does not support
      A11Y. But after the integration of GNOME Power Manager (LSARC/2007/702)
      and GNOME shutdown dialog (LSARC/2008/262), this functionality is
      implemented by gnome-session and gnome-power-manager.  Now
      gnome-sys-suspend is not used by any components anymore. So we propose to
      remove it within a minor release of Solaris.
     
  1.2 Packaging and Release Binding

      The gnome-sys-suspend application along with the SVr4
      SUNWgnome-sys-suspend package family will be removed.
    
  1.3 Documentation

      A man page was shipped with gnome-sys-suspend, and will be removed also. 

  1.4 Dependency

      The removal of this project is dependent upon the integration
      of the GNOME Power Manager (LSARC/2007/702) and GNOME shutdown dialog
      (LSARC/2008/262). Both of them have been already integrated into Solaris.
