Greg -
thanx for the clarification... my intent was only to suggest that the
old BWOS "train" model that Sun has used for MANY years many no longer
hold them in good stead and that should a better distro model come
about, which finally views a distro as nothing more than an integrated
base set of code, a simple and granular repository, and an easy to use
install/upgrade method, OpenSolaris.org based systems could truly
compete for the desktop with the likes of a Ubuntu "Intrepid Ibex". Dont
get me wrong, I am a dyed in the wool SunOS guy, from SunOS3.2 on, but
the release engineering world and the nature of the customer base has
changed and we as a community need to help all the opensolaris.org based
distros compete more effectively or perish under our own weight...
I have to ask, haven't you noticed how significantly the model has
already changed and is continuing to change with the OpenSolaris 200x
releases?
