Steffen: About pkg.opensolaris/release vs pkg.opensolaris/dev, we just switch it in osol_111a. Until 2009.0906 is available at pkg.opensolaris/release, you will have to change the default.xml to point to the correct one.
Even for me, when the default point to opensolaris.org/dev, I have to change it to ipkg.sfbay/dev since I am internal to SUN. If they switch to pkg.opensolaris/release, I still need to change it to ipkg.sfbay/release.
