     I want an open source, community based ZFS storage backend.

     Is OI the correct choice?? Seems to work OK. I don't want a gui

     Is there an alternative? No, ZFS on FreeBSD/Linux doesn't cut it.

i would be happy, if OI can be a success story

but
- who leads the development?
- which major enterprise/ organisation stays behind?

the current answer is: none

If you look at http://echelog.com/logs/browse/oi-dev/
there is no discuss

If you check last developer meetings at wiki.openindiana.org
last was last year ( at the moment  openindiana.org is offline at all)

If you look at comments from Illumos: no future for a general use OS like
OI
http://gdamore.blogspot.de/2012/08/response-to-alasdairs-resignation.html

I hope, you may be right.
While SmartOS and OmniOS can replace OI on servers, they are not as
widespreaded or known at all.

hi all

Currently  i use and recommend OI as the main ZFS/Illumos based
platform-
but its more than obvious that the future development is stalled.
What causes you to believe that future development is stalled?

I am a couple of minor updates behind (on u5 rather than u7) but the
update manager says that there are over 900 packages to be updated. That
does not feel like "stalled" to me.
