That's one of the reasons, why OSOL 2010.X isn't out
yet... ;-)
We have heard that bugs are getting fixed and thats why 2010.X is not out yet. What is
getting fixed? What is the progress? Why can it not be published that bug xxxx.xx has
been fixed. Keep the silence up and the only one who will be left is "Edward Ned
Harvey" . A simple progress report would make a world of difference.
Something like this published with a readme of what has been accomplished once
a week would be nice.

I hate to contribute to the speculation, assumption, idealism, fear
mongering, FUD spreading, and rabble rousing excitement these forums
have enjoyed lately, but surely one more ignorant opinion coming from me
won't hurt. ;-)
Solaris 10 is aging and, as has been said here many times, OpenSolaris
is to be the Solaris Next in some shape, fashion, or form. Perhaps this
delay may very well come from Oracle deciding that it is time, as part
of a campaign to show how much they are serious about their investment
in Solaris, for the release of Solaris 11.
Build 134, as we have seen it, is not ready so perhaps this long wait is
to make it ready. We have seen many very fast changes in the dev
releases of OpenSolaris, so I am sure they have accomplished a lot in
this time. Maybe they are just tightening things up more so than we
have seen in the previous releases because it is not going to be a
typical OSOL release.
Heck, it could have even been part of the deal with Sun. Sun could have
released Solaris 11 to help generate some fanfare and revenue in the
tight times during the wait for EU approval, but they didn't. Maybe
allowing Oracle to release Solaris 11 is the reason why.
Just a thought. Feel free to ignore and light your flame throwers back up.
