And I'll be the first from the engineering team to say that does indeed suck heavily - apologies. We're definitely going to be better at this in the future, especially as we start creating a desktop community around JDS. I'm just cutting through some amount of red tape at the moment, but hopefully we'll see some desktop action on opensolaris.org *real soon*. In the meantime, if you can comment on potential things that a desktop community should be doing, please do - I have a few ideas myself, but I'm just wondering if they're off base compared to the expectations that people have.
