First stop is seeing if we can get the XSun & dtlogin packages.
dtlogin is not included in OpenSolaris because CDE is EOL and in the process
of being removed from Solaris, so including it in OpenSolaris now just to
remove it soon made no sense.
Xsun is not included in OpenSolaris because the licenses of the proprietary
bits included do not allow others to freely redistribute them - a end-user
could take the packages from a SXCE (Nevada) CD/DVD and install them for their
own use, but not give them to others. And because it's similarly EOL and
being removed from Solaris, it wasn't believed to be worth the effort to
remove/replace the encumbered bits to allow free redistribution.
