hey ... I'm not sure I get what you mean. I can't use "distro" to describe the distribution? I do that all the time. And OpenSolaris 2008.05 was released a few months ago, wasn't it? And it's aimed at new developers and new users, and we are going after new markets with it (but then again that was the intention for OpenSolaris all along, but I view the distro as just the latest tool to do that). I'm not sure where I messed up. :) Jim -- http://blogs.sun.com/jimgris/ _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
