When we talked about how OpenSolaris should be driven in September 2004, it
was obvious that Sun works on the issues that get money from paying costomers
while the community works on the aditional wishes of the community.
The community needs to be able to prevent moves into a direction that is
aparently driven by customers but against the will of the majority of the users
and the community needs to be able to put back their developments results.
This way Solaris stays competitive with other OS.
