External to the OpenSolaris project - namely, pieces of software which
are developed outside of OpenSolaris and in which efforts (projects)
are made within OpenSolaris to make those pieces/ports of software
available for OpenSolaris-based distributions.

Would "Upstream Open Source Integration" be any better? :-)
