Simple question : Can a person or person(s) with sufficient craft take the sources from OpenSolaris.org and build a distro which *may* be certified as UNIX ? Yes or No ? To me OpenSolaris is not Windows. It is not OS/2. It is not Linux. It is UNIX, and the proper usage of the term UNIX may be dictated by The Open Group but in general conversation I think that OpenSolaris is all about UNIX and not something else.
