No offense, but if it means less info shared, and faster development cycles,
personally I will live with the lack of "visibility". BTW - They do an
announcement with every incremental release, that coincides with every
opensolaris release. Down the road, when they are closer to Ubuntu-latest,
and have more momentum/volunteers, I'd expect the level of visibility you
are asking for.
