I start shivering to the idea that oracle might drop opensolaris or keep developing only the Openstorage required portions of it, and adding to that the sudden silence in indiana-discuss from "@oracle.com" & "@sun.com" (last email on Friday 9/4), lets hope we will not be forced to move to bsd or linux world ( really outdated OSes compared to (open)solaris ). Please save the project.

A full fork can only be made if the internationalisation parts of libc are released as open source. Either we have to call the TOG (The Open Group) for source license, wait that Roland Mainz releases his version or find a suitable substitute. And then forking the hell outta here.
