Well, Belenix is a project run by a Sun employee. Do you believe it is not a Sun project?
Yes, I believe it is not a Sun project, if, by saying "Sun project", you imply that Sun management made a decision, allocated resources, or otherwise caused it to happen. Of course, this all may change if the idea of BeleniX meets Indiana takes root... As Moinak said, Belenix is a labor of love, driven by a small handful of engineers who take significant chunks of their own personal time to make the project successful. It is not their day job to do so; their job descriptions do not include "develop and work on an OpenSolaris Distro"* Even so, after spending three weeks working in Bangalore, interacting with their management teams, I can say that everyone I met was exceedingly proud of what they have done! -John ____ [*] That's what I love about working at Sun - a job description is simply something to get you started; implicit in every development job is the assumption that you are in charge of updating and rewriting your own job description to take advantage of innovation and change. _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
