Hi Leal,
I second your idea on a meta package. As an interim solution we can
publish a p5i file like the one given here:
http://blogs.sun.com/migi/resource/build_jds.p5i , for installing all
the packages that a user would need to build OpenSolaris. A detailed
account on this feature is given here:

Oh, that is really good! But my point is:
We need to encourage people to participate, and an opensolaris
project (portal like opensolaris.org) *needs* to have a *clear* and
*easy* step-by-step procedure for people play with the source.
And now that we can do it with OpenSolaris distro, is more
important... The documentation is talking about SXCE that is in EOL.
Would be perfect if we could have a *meta-package* whit the hole
think. Even with the hg, source download...
Speaking with my onnv gatekeeper hat on, we are _not_ going to be
providing source tarballs of ONNV. The procedure to get the source
is to run "hg clone" of the repo on hg.opensolaris.org, which is
documented at least in the Developer Reference.
