"fat unstable GNOME" -- you realise that Sun chose GNOME as the desktop a long time ago for Solaris? I also think that your description of GNOME is rather unfair, and rather inaccurate. You seem to not like GNOME very much or the most capable open source browser we have available for the platform. It might be better if you proposed alternatives.
is a real pity that firefox and thunderbird use gtk. I am not saying everything gnome is bad but the underlying gtk stuff is something that I have not had a very nice experience with. Of course, the nexenta choice of deb packaging is very nice.
What else would they use?
I'd want sun cc compiled packages and stable sun libraries with gcc and glibc stuff available separately.
