My understanding of "OpenSolaris" is that uses a liberal license that allows distributors to add closed parts. Internal decisions that affect the closed parts only may of course be handled in a closed case. My impression is however that a discussion about changing the default PATH is a discussion that affects all parts of Opensolaris and thus of course affects "OpenSolaris" as a community platform (not a distro). For this reason, related discussions should be made in the open.
