I dont see that "Oracle is killing OpenSolaris", if it is mentioned on the 
official web page? 

First of all, OpenSolaris is the basis for next gen Solaris 11. If OpenSolaris 
code is scrapped, there will be no Solaris 11. Hence, OpenSolaris code will not 
be killed. It is only FUD to say so.

On the other hand, the OpenSolaris DISTRO is another thing. It may be killed (I 
dont think so) but OpenSolaris will live via Solaris 11. 

Ergo, OpenSolaris will not be killed. The distro from Sun/Oracle might get 
killed. But there are other OpenSolaris distros that have access to all source 
code and build newer versions: Korona, Schillix, Nexenta, Milax, etc. So the 
source code will be built and released as different OpenSolaris distros.

Again, OpenSolaris will not be killed.
