With all due respect Seth, you don't know what you're talking about. These discussions were had years ago. Who are you to tell us all what you think we should all be doing? What gives you the right to pop up out of nowhere, and tell others what to do? We've all made our choices. We all have diametrically opposed viewpoints on how things should be done. Many of these viewpoints are irreconcilable, such as the IPS debate. I love IPS, and many of the core OI devs love IPS. IPS in our opinion is an excellent package management system. I can't speak for all the OI devs but I have absolutely no interest what so ever moving away from it. Peter, Jorg and Martin hate IPS. They still think it can't deliver file based packages, demonstrating a complete bloody mindedness the likes of which you'll only find in UNIX circles. Maybe you'll get some consensus there, but I doubt it. Tribblix, OpenSXCE and Schillix are each distinct separate operating systems. Each of them is a personal passion project. Each of them has been done mostly in isolation with few outside collaborators. I can't see any of them abandoning their babies now. OpenIndiana is the only distro with a wide (albeit still tiny in the grand scheme of things) community developer base. You want to help?
