Oracle is apparently closing down their
support for OpenSolaris.
In fairness to them, they are closing down support for their own binary
distribution of OpenSolaris (eponymously and confusingly named). They still
refuse to make any official public statement on the future of the OpenSolaris
I was taught it was pronouced something like: wa lay. The latin v
is more like a w sound.
Also (like Greek), the emphasis is on the penultimate syllable, moving to
ultimate syllable if the statement is an imperative (if I remember correctly).
Any comments from this august assemblage ?.
I suppose David has more reason than most to feel umbrage.
I kept wanting to get involved (non-z), but didn't see the effort being
rewarded long-term. Even the devs that were at the kernel conference I
was on when the acquisition was (formally)
-- they don't own all the rights to it (for once,
the CDDL actually does something positive). OpenSolaris on Z is still engaged,
but at a much reduced priority while we see what plays out. The Illumos/Nexenta
effort appears to be serious enough to merit additional discussion of what to
do next -- at least
Could someone expound a bit on what vale openSolaris refers to, for
those of us that don't follow Oracle/Sun that closely? A Google search
turns up little of use.
Thanks.
