I find this discussion about the name particularly stupid! Microsoft 

have used names like Vienna, Longhorn, etc. and nobody complained. And
then there are companies with funny names like... Oracle! So let's 

rename OpenIndiana to say Helios, which is Greek for Sun. Do you 

think this will make things better?
