+1 to this - I think this really hits the nail on the head. I hate
making parallels to Linux, but if you look what Debian have done, it's
an incredible community achievement. If we could do half of that with
OpenSolaris, I think we'd be doing very well indeed.
For me, OpenSolaris is not just about the OS, or the sources - far from
that. It's something much more exciting and I'm not talking with my
Sun/Solaris hat on :)
That's not to take anything away from genunix, blastwave or sunfreeware
- they've all been *incredibly* successful [1]. I personally believe if
we can join forces we have the chance at making something truly amazing.

begin to understand what letting go might feel to that person :/
