Thanks for your comments.

You are correct: although the e1000g and nxge are in snv_88, they did 
not make it in time for the release of OpenSolaris 2005.08 (aka 
Indiana), based on snv_86. So they are expected to be in the "next" 
OpenSolaris release. However, we used the word "next" in order not to 
tie the hands of the OpenSolaris folks as they work at scheduling the 
next Indiana release - and maybe how it will be called! ;)

But if it causes confusion, the reference to the "next OpenSolaris" can 
certainly be taken out and just refer to Nevada builds.
