Well, first, I was CC'd to this discussion by someone but I've never 
told that I'm personally interested in porting it to OpenSolaris. I 
might be because I consider it a nice OS and I feel terribly sorry 
seeing what is happening with it these days but my primary focus is 
FreeBSD, so in my highly limited amount of time, for now, I prefer 
working on FreeBSD.

If you can send me a list of encoding names, I'll be more than happy to 
check if they are supported in FreeBSD iconv and add an alias if doesn't 
exist already.
