That is actually an excellent point, Darren. While SXCR happens to be
one of the four publicly existing distributions based on OpenSolaris
it is a special one. And the reason for it being such is that one
need to install it to be able to build OpenSolaris itself. So falling
behind OpenSolaris is a bad practice. Really bad practice. As long as
OpenSolaris tightly coupled with SXCR they should go out in sync,
especially when flag day is called.
Given that SXCR has far more legal constraints than OpenSolaris source,
does it make sense to:
1) Tighly couple the releases and cause the OpenSolaris sources/BFU to
have the same lag?
or
2) Release the source/BFU as often as we can, and leave SXCR to release
whenever they can.

Giving Nextenta, SchilliX, Belenix a chance to release an OpenSolaris
based distro/product based on newer source than is available with
currently released Solaris Express bits.
See you can spin this anyway you like.
Exactly. _any_ way.
Note that silly word
play by me is all those comments are, quoting them out of context
or making slashdot/osnews/etc stories out of them is not permitted
