Where is it written? Sun's employees don't even dare to say ?Solaris 11?.

I wish, but the problem is, Sun is putting lots of energy into
OpenSolaris, and I still lack proper support for Sun's own hardware.
And many things are being fixed only in Nevada and OpenSolaris, and not
Solaris. Even real, actual bugs, not only new features.

Yes, it's my view, too. So, again, where is it written? You have to be
inside Sun just to know about that, and I have to follow closely the
mailing list to be given those tidbits. I wonder what is the outside
world view.
Sun changed the definition of OpenSolaris months ago, and didn't even
bother to update the project definition page.

Before asking for Community help and endorsement, wouldn't some clarity
be welcome? It's incredible how Sun people here seem to be so smugly
knowledgeable, and the Community isn't.
