I can't disagree with you :-)
But what triplet would you choose for it? Maybe *-sun-solaris3.0. And since
they are not that dumb at Sun :-), the next one could be named Solaris G3
Release 2, which would be triplet-ed as *-sun-solaris3.2.
So you will end up with the *-sun-solaris2.* series and the *-sun-solaris3.*
series and in the middle... *-sun-solaris10. At which point you may want to
eat the first Sun employee within your reach :-)
I think we'd better keep the current naming [solarisx.y for sunos(3+x).y] for
the whole SunOS 5.x series. When the technical guys decide to switch to
SunOS 6.x, we'll organize a naming contest :-)
