Simple question :
Can a person or person(s) with sufficient craft take the sources
from OpenSolaris.org and build a distro which *may* be certified
as UNIX ?
Yes or No ?
To me OpenSolaris is not Windows. It is not OS/2. It is not Linux.
It is UNIX, and the proper usage of the term UNIX may be dictated by
The Open Group but in general conversation I think that OpenSolaris
is all about UNIX and not something else.
