The OGB membership changes (elections are 'soon', even, for OGB seats). 
Ideas change.  And there are quite a few reasons other than "we don't want 
to share" behind those sorts of moves on the part of OpenSolaris.  (Folks 
really *do* want to share -- but there is a large amount of fear that 
people in the Linux distro community will completely screw things up by, 
e.g., forking the code in unwise ways.)
