Those flag day contents look good to me.

I've filed a bug which I think we should mention in the flag day:

18272 pkg.sysrepo can't proxy publishers that are redirected

In particular, this affects users who use
http://ipkg.us.oracle.com/on-nightly and
http://ipkg.us.oracle.com/on-extra and so could be relevant for a decent
proportion of our early users.

Here's some suggested additional text for the flag day -

--------
Please note, that in order to work around the following bug:

18272 pkg.sysrepo can't proxy publishers that are redirected

users of the ON nightly repositories will need to run the following
commands in their global zones in order for non-global zones to reach
their publishers:

# pkg -R / set-publisher \
    -g http://ipkg.us.oracle.com/internal/solaris11/on/extra \
    -G http://ipkg.us.oracle.com/on-extra on-extra
# pkg -R / set-publisher \
    -g http://ipkg.us.oracle.com/internal/solaris11/on/nightly \
    -G http://ipkg.us.oracle.com/on-nightly on-nightly

Other repositories configured in the global zone may need similar
workarounds - checking the system repository log files
in /var/log/pkg/sysrepo/access_log for the scenario described in the bug
report will show the URL that the clients are being redirected to, but
for which the system repository is returning a 404.

        cheers,
                        tim
