Don't take this personally, but I strongly disagree. This so called 
diversity is the main reason GNU/Linux as a brand and platform for ISVs 
is pretty much useless these days. Wheel reinvention, incompatible 
packaging, different tools, etc. Those are the reasons that drove me 
away from Linux. I hope those using just the solaris kernel with all the 
GNU stuff will have the guts to drop the Solaris brand or SUN should 
evaluate putting some strong guidelines in place for what is supposed to 
be called Solaris.
