http://opensolaris.org/os/communities/ says
OpenSolaris communities are social groups whose members engage
in open conversations and will have representation in the
governance process. Although communities do not have source
repositories, it's expected that communities will endorse
technical projects and have projects of their own.
whereas http://opensolaris.org/os/projects/
OpenSolaris projects are collaborative efforts that produce
objects such as code changes, documents, graphics, or
collaboratively authored products. Projects will have code
repositories and committers and can live within a community
or independently.
Based on those descriptions, the shells which you work on sure sound
more like a project than a community to me. So assuming that you would
be happy with a shells project, I would be equally happy to second it.
