Hi Linda, All,
This is explicitly what I and those I work with in the OpenIndiana
community did not want - Nexenta releasing an officially blessed
Illumos distro.
I don't understand this. Why shouldn't nexenta have an illumos distro?
our current distro is still based opensolaris b134.
This turns Illumos into FreeBSD - a Kernel closely aligned with its
userland.
I'd suggest if Nexenta is making a distribution, that they give it a
non-Illumos associated name.
this is important, we didn't think of this. thanks, we just thought it
was descriptive.
All distributions under the Illumos project should be on an equal
footing. This includes StormOS, Belenix, OpenIndiana, and Illumian by
name violates this.
i really don't want to have to change the name. you have no idea what i
have been through just to get a name. then another name, then another
name... this has actually been one of the most difficult processes in my
life and i carried twins for 8 and 1/2 months. :)
I don't have time to write a bigger response, but this is the short
version.
Regards,
Alasdair
