No, that is specifically included the ban, for all the reasons mentioned —
at any rate now that Oracle’s code for KMS is posted under a liberal
license, I think we the whole point is moot.

Martin's code is based on the the Oracle baseline (more or less), and one benefit is that he has identified the gaps between Illumos and Oracle Solaris, though one of his solutions wasn't quite kosher, and should have a different solution. This, however, was based on the review I did last December before he choose to chastise me for noticing this, and I choose to look no more.

      To me the answer to this is simple. Someone who wants the code
      to be putback, take the responsibility to interact with martin
      and contribute it.

Are your priorities so messed up you're focused on some code and not the
behavior? If you want KMS, go write it or fund it, but don't expect
collaboration if those are the terms.

You are not answering the question! My question is very simple: Illumos
is the ONLY OS that does not provide KMS. We need that or else soon it would
not be possible to use a computer monitor with OpenIndiana, etc. This was
documented almost 3 years ago:

https://homepages.laas.fr/matthieu/talks/mh-fosdem-2013.pdf

Now the question is: When are going to have KMS in Illumos? Do you have
any plans to start working on this?

Do you?

Yes, we can use a KMS implementation.

No, we don't need it so bad that we're are willing to put up with a harassin
g, abusive individual in order to have it.

We have standards here, if not (yet) as a group then certainly as individual
s.
