No. Trolls encourage FUD. The missed release date doesn't encourage FUD if you just relax about it, and ask yourself why do you care so much. Does it create any material difference to you, affect your bank statement, impact your personal health, if 2010.x is delayed? For the meantime, you can continue using the developer builds, or 2009.06, whichever you prefer. Or sol10. Are you scared that osol will cease to exist? That's not possible. Are you scared that oracle will cease development efforts on osol? This is the worst case possible scenario. If oracle suddenly fired every employee who ever worked on osol, it would not make today's osol a bad product overnight. If you're using it, you can continue using it. You will have plenty of time in the next year or two, to think about what OS you're going to use next, and gracefully switch to it, before any significant feature is missing from osol. _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
