Does this mean that the new consolidation has some sort of a "first
refusal" agreement with ON?  In other words, can you (or "should you")
deliver via the new consolidation without bothering to see whether ON
would reject you, or do you have to apply to ON first?

I think part of the goodness of the consolidations that feed into the
OpenSolaris distribution is that the software is made easily available.
 It's all packaged up and shipped properly.  Thus, having projects that
might consider this new consolidation deliver though an established
consolidation instead, all else being equal, would be a good thing for
all users and should be encouraged.

How exactly do the products of this consolidation's work get
distributed?  And how does this consolidation encourage folks to do
things with longer-term benefits?
