Looks much better than before, thanks for the notification!

One thing I wonder about is this comment:

"The Recommended and Sun Alert patch clusters provide very similar 
functionality as per their descriptions below. It is planned to merge 
these clusters in future."

When reading the description of the clusters one sees that there is an 
important difference, though (after all, its in bold letters): The Alert 
cluster contains the minimum revision, while the Recommended cluster 
contains the latest revision of all Sun Alert patches. For some people 
this might be a huge difference, as the number of patches to apply on a 
given system will differ vastly with these two clusters, I guess.

BTW, I've been asked multiple times on how to use pca to list/install 
just "critical patches", ie. those which are contained in the 
"Recommended Patch Cluster". Right now, the "R" flag in the 
patchdiag.xref doesn't seem to be a 1:1 match with the cluster - I think 
it would be great if it was. There doesn't seem to be any official 
definition of the "R" flag at all, at least I never found one.

Martin.
