Hmm. Don't take this an offence, I'm just trying to understand the basic
drivers for this.

Why have you descided to opt for a own "distro" (nextena), instead of
using debian.
Just could have just done like the debian/hurd or debian/kfreebsd people
are doing: stack the debian OS on top of an alternative kernel (in this
case, the opensolaris kernel).

You can then work from there on and add the typical solaris-features
(like zones) to it.



Again, don't get me wrong. I'm not critizing anybody or anything here.
(I have learned not to critize things I get for free. :-))
I'm just interested in the question why this route was taken.




Cheerio! Kr. Bonne.
