> What is so special about the reference distribution that it can't be one of the existing distros ?
1) The existing distros are pretty much Solaris 11 prototypes, and Solaris 11 is wholly a Sun product. Even though the first captain of the ship Project Indiana will be a Sun employee, the OpenSolaris distro will be a community project. 2) When you look at what current Solaris people want, and what everyone else wants, you see two different things. That is why, for the time being anyway, two distros must coexist.
