This is doubtlessly true.
We need to inform people about OpenSolaris and about it's advanced debug
features. Then we will attract application developersto at least port to
OpenSolaris.
We may (will most likely) attract bug fixers and probably a few driver
developers.
We will most likely in the close future only stay with the people who do
already work on the Solaris kernel, but this is no real problem.
