I am a bit surprised that you think the product will be up to the same 
level in a few of months time as the current "SXDE 1/08".

At the moment the two areas which concern me are how I can do network 
Jumpstart installs - nearly at a flick of a switch I can upgrade a lab 
of machines running the latest and greatest OpenSolaris. I can't use 
Solaris 10 since of the outdated interfaces.

Also, I still like the single download - it may be a DVD size, but at 
least it is done in one go and it allows me to upgrade my home machine 
in one easy go! Is there any way of doing this at the moment i.e. mass 
download of packages to install at a later date?

Don't get me wrong Indiana is the way of the future with its small 
download, install and then package update for ever more for the desktop 
world, but I can't not see it for the Solaris Server World.

Thanks anyway for the clarification.

Andrew
