All,

We are working to launch a new/old distribution under illumos and would
like to see if there is any input or interest prior to launch.

Nexenta originally had a distribution based on a solaris kernel and
debian userland. As we move forward we would like to continue that but
as we move to an illumos based kernel it was time to change the name and
make some other modifications. We would like to move this project closer 
aligned with the
illumos community.

We took a vote as a company and the name illumian won for the new
distribution. It is illumos + debian packaging. It has been decided we
will use the same upstream sources as openindiana. We are just about ready for 
our initial launch and
still need some answers to questions.

We will be hosting the apt and iso server and are hoping for community
contributions to our distro. We now are trying to figure out if we should host
the content and discussion outside of illumos or to just make this a
project under illumos?? Does anyone have any input?
