Whats the holdup on getting sources?

Caldera inherited a weird source control system that all the sources are stored in, and they use an even more weird build system. Getting them “releasable” is a two step process. First is to get all new makefiles written. At last estimate, there are about 120+ of them. After the makefile for each package is complete, it will be sent back to Caldera for approval. Gene assumes that they will release each package as the extraction/new makefile is done for each, but he’s not sure. He really can’t predict a timeline right now.
