4 Yes /we/ have a business model, but I still do this for /fun/ and have
5 just too lazy to move over to my new project centric email.

13 There's various ways to get commit notification for our project including..
14
15 rss and atom feeds
16 http://hg.osunix.org/osunix-overlay/
17
18 osunix-commits
19 http://lists.scsys.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/osunix-commits

21 For gentoo-alt needs you'd maybe be interested in osunix-commits and
22 filter for anything that's tagged osunix-overlay.
23
24 Other sources of patches for solaris are sfw, sfe, blastwave, belenix,
25 jds, kde4-specs-dev and maybe a few more, but these are more or less
26 what I follow. If there's a clean way monitor any gentoo-alt patches
27 that are solaris related I'd be happy to review and coordinate if I see
28 overlap.
