Ok, thanks for the clarification. If I'm understanding your concern, it
is that the *application vendor* (e.g., Oracle in your example) wouldn't

You still dont get it. The vendor doesnt care about any guarantee from
Sun.

The I'd suggest you starting looking for a new vendor.

Anyone who's so far behind that ball that they don't have a product that's
"certified" to run on a version of Solaris that has been out for over a
year (not to mention the >> 1 year it was available pre-release in the
form of Solaris Express) is not a vendor that I'd feel comfortable with
spending too much of my $$'s with...
