Since OpenSolaris is an early release of Solaris train discussion of what we 
need in Solaris also would help to improve Opensolaris. So let us not disown 
Solaris discussion here.

Thanks for the info doc. That really emphasis from support perspective it is 
really good to be at some known level. 

Based on Solaris usage metacluster concept had evolved over time based. The 
issue is number of classification stayed same though we have many packages now. 
So one idea could be that to introduce one more classification based Solaris 
supportability. Say create a classification Entire + X  where X packages are 
not supported by monthly patch bundle. Or Entire + OpenSource (This will make 
it easy    to implement   some company policies)

Sorry in my original posting I meant minus open source software. My main motive 
of discussion is supportability (Patches as part of Monthly bundle). I don't 
want to discuss about usability part on what software to pick. We really don;t 
want unmanaged software packages.
