What would your fork do differently than the main project, besides have almost
no developers working on it, since all the Oracle-paid developers would still be
working on the original OpenSolaris?

It would get a release out.  I'm still using b134 since 03/09/2010.

     Would you even have enough developers
to keep up with the overhead of merging in all the changes Oracle developers
are pushing to the main OpenSolaris gates every day?


If their pushing to the main OpenSolaris gates every day, why hasn't anything been released. Why cannot I upgrade to b135, b136 or b137? Everyone is getting edgy. If Oracle won't publish a binary, Dennis is testing what it would take to do this effort himself.


If what you really want is a new distro that's not in Oracle's control, what
would differentiate your distro from the existing ones, and why would it make
sense to start another instead of joining one of the existing groups to work
on theirs?


I don't think he wants to start a new distro, he's looking to publish b137.
