Am I missing something???
Yes.
This [ http://solaris.kde.org/ ]
is the URL for the KDE Solaris site at KDE, under the kde.org domain,
sponsored, paid for and maintained by The KDE Foundation [KDE e.V.].
It is completely independent from Sun, or OpenSolaris.
Rephrasing Martin's question:
What is there that an OpenSolaris Project {would, could}
do that the solaris.kde.org effort {wouldn't, couldn't,
isn't} already doing?
If the answer is along the lines of "nothing much, just more of the
same, but done by different people in a different place", then I'd
vote "-1", because I don't see a compelling reason for OpenSolaris
(the community) to replicate each and every other project out there.
The strength of the OpenSolaris community is its coupling with the
core OS. Things that align well with the kernel and/or the core
utilities, that demand or require tight integration - those are the
ones that I see fitting well. Others (Java, OpenOffice, etc) seem
just fine where they are today. If they aren't broke, why change
them?
