Hi all, I work for Halcyon, and we've been selling monitoring software for Solaris (and other OS's) for many years. In general our Solaris 10 builds "just work" on OpenSolaris (no surprise there)... though we've never included official support for it in our main releases... or in our beta programs.
But other than Joyent and a few service providers selling cheap hosted Containers... I can't find companies using it to make money: i.e. the types of customers that would see value in commercial software that offers official OpenSolaris support. It's hard to even justify adding support to new beta releases if there's nobody that could kick the tires :) So as a general question: do you feel there's enough business use of OpenSolaris for ISV's to start targeting it for official support? Or will it always be a waiting game for the next official version of "Oracle Solaris" to get pushed out the door? Thanks!
