There's also a community distro in the works, stay tuned.
Is this the Illumos project?

Dmitry.
Not specifically. IllumOS will provide a "core" set, basically what was ON. It's bootable already, with the inclusion of some closed binary plugs.

Think of IllumOS as the distro-builder's base. A full Distro still should be built on top of IllumOS - things like which packaging system, filesystem layout, GNOME/KDE/etc, are properly part of a full Distro, and not IllumOS.
