Forgive me if I don't get excited. But thats for Solaris 11, for all
we know, based on Larrys expectations, it will probably be tuned for
Database and Servers. Oracle may well remove most desktop and laptop
functionality, after all, it's not required and makes support much harder.
From http://blogs.sun.com/jimlaurent/entry/solaris_11_in_2011
Solaris 11 will be based on technologies currently available for preview
in OpenSolaris <http://www.opensolaris.org> including:
* Image packaging system
* Crossbow network virtualization
* ZFS de-duplication
* CIFS file services
* Enhanced Gnome user environment
* Updated installer and auto network installer
* Network Automagic configuration
* and much more
Also, if I read in between the lines for this statement "Solaris 11
will be a superset of what is in Opensolaris", it say's to me, Oracle
is not open with Opensolaris any more. There will likely be
proprietary extensions added not in Opensolaris.
So? No change there.
