What happens to
the Solaris Express brand depends on what decision is made on
what to call Indiana. Do we move to a model where Indiana is called
OpenSolaris, i.e., is a binary distribution maintained by the
community, with multiple distributions in the mold of Ubuntu/
Kubuntu/Xubuntu/etc. and with binary compatibility across distros?
Or does Indiana continue to be called Solaris Express and is just one
distribution of many in the mold of Red Hat/SUSE/Debian/etc. with source
level compatibility across distros? That seems to be the big question.
It also depends on whether Sun sees any value in continuing Solaris
Express as OpenSolaris/Indiana plus the huge amount of Solaris code
that's not opened/redistributable, such as CDE (okay, bad example
since CDE is coming out of the current Solaris Express too over
the next year or so).
