One of the biggest problems with all of our community distros is that they are 
not compatible with IPS.  This problem is further complicated by the fact that 
Sun's own OpenSolaris distro does not allow multiple boot with other 
Solaris-based OS.

Things probably would look very different if Sun's top management did not 
summarily ignore all of those community distros. Instead, they "had to" hire a 
Linux has-been to create something that never received support from the Solaris 
old hands.

It's probably too late to go back to Nexenta or beleniX IMHO.  But Milax could 
be interesting.
