In my OpenSolaris t-shirt collection, I have one with the slogan:
"Innovation happens everywhere"
So you want us to dream? :)
- Would like to have playing sound just don't suck on illumos, kracking,
stopping, pausing, really don't care if it about boomer or pulseaudio or
vlc or driver or firefox, or inability for user processes to have higher
priority - just make the sound work without such awful problems. That
would really be a breakthrough for me.
- Would also like per-zone I/O scheduling to be a standard across the
illumos distribution so the whole system doesn't get choked if
something is dumping cores while something else is playing audio or
trying to do something else in the real time.
And yes, run all processes in the zones, together with X/GUI support , I
think Opensolaris already had that before, with the focus on different
security realms.
- illumos on ARM for mobile, coupled with hardware manufacturers, having
linux-android zones. Utilizing binary compatibility (with ABI stability)
for illumos/ARM applications for mobile, across devices, not relying on
Java VM, working faster.
Coupling devices with "bunch of zones" or "zones groups" on the cloud
providers, representing that same device and possibly also running the
same apps in the cloud. With block-level replications from the device to
the cloud (with dataset encryption in the cloud).
ABI stability and presence on the mobile market could be the real
incentive for the new young people to join in.
- Make systems run something out of the box , tailored per-use case.
Systems usually do nothing after install. Make them have AI-like
behavior out of the box , trying to do something useful while just
sitting there doing nothing after fresh install. With some questions
here and there about bandwidth, metered/non metered connection, desired
actions.
- After finally implementing OpenCL, AMD graphics drivers, have GPU
processing power shared across zones and applications with speed
throttling. Have also PCI-e-Passthrough for VMs and distributed OpenCL
framework running at the same time.
