If they merely point it's DNS record at .org, nothing will happen, other 
than confusion.  If they used it to set up a spoof website that tried to 
  harvest your username and password, that would be bad.

I do think it would be better if opensolaris.biz pointed to a holding 
page rather than the real site though, because it *is* confusing. 
Michal, could you explain why this has been done?  Thanks.
