4. Technical Description:
    4.1. Details:

	Lynx is an open-source text-only web browser.  It is an ncurses-based
	app which allows users to browse web pages from non-GUI environments
	like a terminal or the console.

	Lynx is not intended to replace the Firefox web browser in
	OpenSolaris, but does have advantages in certain scenarios.  It is
	useful where only a text-based environment is available and in
	low-bandwidth setups.  It may also be useful for some visually-
	impared users.

	Lynx uses OpenSSL to access HTTPS encrypted URLs.  This use will be
	covered by an upcoming contract beetween JDS and ON to be lodged
	with the OpenSSL ARC case (PSARC 2003/500).

	This proposal adds Lynx 2.8.6, the latest stable version, to
	OpenSolaris.

	This proposal seeks Minor release binding.

    4.2. Bug/RFE Number(s):

	None.
