Well, I could certainly install Java, but when and how would I do this exactly?

What's the reason behind not simply configuring the additional opensolaris.org 
publisher and its repository (either ipkg.sfbay/dev or your own copy)?  This is 
where the packages that were historically in the 'WOS' live now.

1. I can't guarantee internet access

That's fine; at the moment, the only requirement is that you have a pkg.depotd process serving the repository in question.

2. I want to have a specific version of packages that I've qualified

Have all packages in the WOS been converted to IPS? Can I pull down a specific 
version and storage it locally in a repo that I create?

Yes, yes, and yes. I'll send you the link to the appropriate material off-list that talks about how to run a local mirror.

The package system is only going to install the packages that are declared as 
being required -- not everything.

I don't know what that means.

I was just saying that having a copy of what's normally in the pkg.opensolaris.org/dev repository for a specific build won't cause your system to install all of those other packages automatically.

So if you install the group package that Liane mentioned for osnet, it's only going to retrieve the other packages it needs.

Not that you'd expect otherwise, but I just wanted to be clear.
