And encouraging people to think about what may make sense in a new open source
world - for example, we had a good discussion at PSARC over how the current
interface and release taxonomy only made compatibility guarantees whenever a
Solaris 11^W^WNext got shipped, and thus potentially alienating any derivative
distribution wanting to be binary compatible. Well worth listening to John's mp3
recording, FWIW.
