I've usually been merging with onnv every Monday morning. I've yet to 
figure out how "hg history" correspond sto the "node" in the download 
page. After I do that, I'm thinking of creating a page on opensolaris 
with info about the phase 1 repository and a pointer to the closed-bins 
from the on download page.
