As with Maintenance and Revision releases, all prerequisite source licenses and agreements must be in place before any source can be made available to you. Electronic Archives Access to Electronic Archives of a technology is offered to aid you with your maintenance and revision release re-integration efforts. The Archives include defect fixes, full source trees of the latest source code snapshots, and full dumps of all public defect reports logged against the technology, including proposed fixes and comments regarding the work on the defect as it proceeds. Access to this information uses various interfaces, depending on the technology. For example, X11 access is via a mailing list and direct ftp browsing of the live source tree.
Specific reports vary from technology to technology.
We can work with your organization to generate custom reports, further matching our development process and cycles with yours. The Open Group can help you isolate your problem, run diagnostics, inspect code, and write test cases. We can also tell you the status of any problem which has ever been reported, and help you trace it through the resolution process. Problems may be reported by telephone or electronic mail. Once The Open Group receives your incident report, an acknowledgment will be sent to you.
