Hi Peter,

GNU/kFreeBSD relates moreso to the Nexenta community (OpenSolaris kernel/Ubuntu 
(Debian) userland) - which also is known as GNU/Solaris.

To help create the next community distro, I'd talk to Nexenta. Take a look at
Nexenta Core Platform 3.0 RC2 and see what can be improved from it.

The Belenix project is another group that can be of assistance. Lots of 
experience
and software engineering skillsets there on building and designing distros.

The other projects like Milax and EON can also give some guidance.
 
There is also the upcoming Oracle OpenWorld and some Hackathons going on. Even 
if people are 'non-developers/programmers', feedback and encouragement is
better than 'sitting on the benches and whining'.

If people really want to help, just make a list of what you want to see if 'the 
community' did create a 'version' of OpenSolaris 2010.X. Start asking distro 
communities what they need help on an if they want to build an updated distro.

As for OpenSolaris 2010.03, read up on these docs:
