I know Solaris has a slower release cycle - but with CCD developed by

wants the latest from OpenSolaris or Solaris release boundled CCD.

The big advantage I see for a community CCD is up-to-date...

And when it finds that certain /usr/sfw or more tightly integrated
bits need to be updated, this can be driven from the CCD community
directly...


+1.

An up-to-date CCD (and JDS) drives an up-to-date SFW, which reduces (dramatically reduces?) the need for distros and ports projects to install duplicate libraries.

Or put another way, the OpenSolaris "standard base" improves in a way that dramatically makes life easier for developers and package mainainers.
