What are you going to do with the fork? Solaris is dependent on the
briliant engineers from what was Sun, no external coders have stepped
upp and supplied many new features, mainly fixes only.
You sure can make your own distro but I'll think the only way forward
for the success of opensolaris is one distro supported by what's now
oracle. Who is otherwise going to keep the fork going, just using and
updating other OSS packades bundled with the OpenSolaris kernel is not
enought. And you already have several different distros with the
OpenSolaris kernel.
You want the good stuff from Oracle working together with your own
updated software but no dependency on Oracle?
I'll wait a bit longer and see, it will probably be changes I don't
like it might not be the end of the world.

I'd switch to the forked version immediately. In all honesty, who
wouldn't like to see Oracle out of this equation. It could be very
healthy for OpenSolaris or whatever it'll be called when forked.
