	I've no problem at all with you doing this.

	However, do note that you'll also need patches to make GNOME not get
screwed up with gnome-smproxy - e.g. bugs #118063, #309506 and #147691.

	I don't want to get dragging into a discussion about whether or not Sun
should continue to ship smproxy, but I will say that if I was still
involved I would be very much arguing for not shipping it and my
rationale would be along the same lines as the rationale I put forward
on this list.

Cheers,
