We're working on it.  We should talk soon.  Albert is fully aware of it too, so 
you should talk with Albert.  We had intended to get this into shape before 
handing it over to the community -- the idea wasn't to exclude community 
participation at all.

Right now the process is just bootstrapping so we can build the precisely same 
bits that OpenIndiana builds, using the oi-build tree as is.   The main part of 
our work is focusing on the tools to build the debian packages out of the 
oi-build tree.

I suppose we can move this fully into the open if there are folks in the 
community that want to participate there.
