I am a programmer but not for OS development but in the GUI/ usability area otherwise I would help (can help with testing)
It is really a pity. Ragarding storage and usability, Solaris and OmniOS is far better than Linux that I use as well for my ZFS GUI. With the newest features that Nexenta integrates into NexentaStor (beside VAII this is SMB2 and failure management on slow disks), Illumos has the ability to be the number 1 storage OS - even in the OpenSource or low-cost area, better than BSD or Linux. If Nexenta would give Illumian more love, it might become the leading free Illumos distribution but I do not expect that this will happen. The other „big players“ like Delphix, Joyent or OmniOS seems to have no interest in such storage features as well as improvements in encryption (hey we need this) Gea/ napp-it.org Am 05.08.2014 um 19:27 schrieb Floris van Essen ..:: House of Ancients Amstafs ::.. <[email protected]>: > Hi Dan, > > Sometimes i wish was a programmer J > Infra dude here, with plenty of stuff to test thing, but a programmer I am > not, however if you need testers…. > > > > > Van: Dan McDonald [mailto:[email protected]] > Verzonden: dinsdag 5 augustus 2014 18:48 > Aan: Floris van Essen ..:: House of Ancients Amstafs ::.. > CC: [email protected] > Onderwerp: Re: [OmniOS-discuss] Status of VAAI > > Someone needs to take the time to port the Illumos-nexenta bits upstream. > Nobody has yet stepped up to the plate.
