I don't understand why there is so much animosity being expressed

this so wrong?
I say this as someone who has no vested interest in Blastwave,
Sunfreeware, or the companion CD but I still don't see the point, the
"community" already has a more than one "project" to get pre-built open
source software. I still can not see a reason to create yet another
project unless there is something fundamentally wrong with the existing
projects.
The terms are confusing people again - the "project" being created is just
a project hosting area on opensolaris.org for a project that has been in
existence for about 6 years now. It's not creating something entirely new,
just moving what already exists to a new home outside of Sun's firewall
instead of inside it.
