The links on this page:

http://www.opensolaris.org/os/downloads/

...always point at the current version via a redirect of some sort.

You can use this one for DVD:
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/downloads/sol_ex_dvd/

This one for CD:
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/downloads/sol_ex_cd

Likely here:
http://dlc.sun.com/osol/on/downloads/b70/

Though I don't know if there's been a respin. I also assume you're
talking about the "ON" consolidation and not everything that is part
of SXDE (not all source is available).

It's all on the downloads page (except a link to the specific source
version). If you have some suggestions that could improve clarity of
this, please respond to website-discuss (I have CC'd them).
