All,

Is here exist an plan to let user setup a repository for 2009.06 release.

I found it's hard to use http://pkg.opensolaris.org/release as my repository 
for my poor network bandwidth.  As you know for other linux distribution,  you 
can choice using network to download packages with it's package manager 
software or using CD/DVD as packages source,  why open solaris force it's user 
to connect to internet to download package.  I also try to using rsync to 
mirror packages for I have several server need been installed,  but I found 
it's hard to download these packages for here no seperate repository for each 
release build,  what you can do is rsync all build(include not only release 
build), and the number of files is VERY VERY big, the rsync spend 9 hours but 
still stay in get file list stage,  I am not sure how may days I need to rsync 
all it's content from pkg.opensolaris.org.

Thanks,
John
