7: == Cool Stack Project
8: 
9:  Cool Stack is a collection of some of the most commonly used open source applications optimized for the Sun Solaris OS platform. By using these binaries you will enjoy the best levels of performance from your system, while also reducing your time-to-service.
10: 
11: Cool Stack had been originally conceived to provide a set of out-of-the-box optimized binaries for a common set of software components on the UltraSPARC T1 based systems. By performing this packaging for the community, the OpenSPARC project and Sun’s Performance Technologies group had a goal to make it easy for users to quickly add packages to their existing systems to quickly obtain optimized performance and reducing time to service.
12: 
13: Over time, there was sufficient demand for an equivalent set of packages on x64, so a similar set of optimized packages and build scripts were put together for the i386 and amd64 architectures as appropriate.
14: 
15: Cool Stack derived its name from the CoolTools project it is associated with.

18: 
19: Please note that Cool Stack is not WebStack. Cool Stack predated and inspired the WebStack project but it is a separate effort. As noted above, Cool Stack builds stand-alone packages which can be installed onto Solaris 10. Cool Stack does not deliver components into OpenSolaris. For historical reasons, Cool Stack sources (see below) continue to be hosted here on the Web Stack project. For WebStack information, refer to the [[main project pages>>Project webstack.WebHome]].

21: == Obtaining Cool Stack Packages
22: 
23: Cool Stack is available for download from the Sun Download Center. Packages are available both for SPARC and x86 platforms. Source snapshot packages are also available for each version.
