I understand that opinion. It's pretty clear that if we get this
approved we won't be putting up source code tomorrow,

This is coming, but it has not yet been decided.
Let me give some reasons to be clearer about our intentions.
1. We want to let people know about Honeycomb because we think
it's cool (and that it's real rather than just some marketing
bs).
This can

I've already made a proposal there. Just trying to make sure that
everyone feels I'm addressing their concerns ;-)

Let me give some more details about Honeycomb. It is a Solaris

I agree with Steve about this - unless you are going to release some

Finally, I'm not trying to pressure anyone into giving a +1. We have a

Hi John,
you seem to have summed up the situation reasonably well. I have a few
comments in-line below.

I guess the decision the Open Solaris community needs to make is if it
is about building developer communities for Solaris-based appliances, or
if there is a more appropriate place to do this...

Hi Peter,
It seems like a lot of what you want to accomplish could be done within
the realms of the 'Appliances'[1] community. If the discussion leads to
a point where you have code to release, or a more committed open
development model - then it would be easy to then open a Honeycomb

The plan is to provide the SDK initially so that we establish the apis

Once we have some agreement on that we will look at opening up

I'm not seeing much in the above (though maybe that's me being dense)
that seems opensolaris related. We are neither a hosting service, nor a
