I am hereby requesting mirror sites for the ongoing community packaging
effort of free software (under 'CSW' packages)

Thanks to Dennis Clarke, we now have public build machines for volunteers.
(sparc, and x86 solaris boxes)
We also have some packages built, with many more in the pipeline.

What we need now, are some more mirror sites. (and volunteers, ...)

If you are interested, please visit
http://www.blastwave.com/

We have some "standard" GNU type freeware that the companion CD and
sunfreeware.com have. However, we ALSO have some packages that other sites
do NOT:

pre-packaged binaries for apache 1.3.27, WITH integrated OpenSSL
pre-packaged mod_php (and more apache binary modules forthcoming)
pre-packaged 'gd' library (which the mod_php is compiled against already)
Apple's "Darwin Streaming Media Server"

I encourage folks who are able, to please join in the effort.
If we join together, we can make the available useful binary packages
available for Solaris, every bit as good as what is available for Debian Linux,
for example.
