I can't speak for the technologies, but I think there's a *lot* of knowledge in
existing packaging efforts that can be utilized. As you'll probably note for
pkg.opensolaris.org, most of the packages on Indiana were leveraged from Solaris
Express efforts. As time goes on though, you'll see Indiana benefiting from
initiatives like Blastwave and spec-files-extra.

In case it wasn't obvious, I'm massive confident in wanting to achieve what we
all commonly want - application availability, and I trust Stephen, Danek and co
100% in providing that infrastructure to make it possible.
