But there are patches you install on Nevada systems - for the add-on
products like Sun Studio compilers or the various JES servers. Even
if Nevada itself completely switches to a new patch-less packaging
system, it seems likely to support for a while at least adding SVR4
packages and Solaris patches until the rest of the Solaris ecosystem
moves.
