I understand from sources close to the port that it is indeed underway and should be sometime this year.

Re: OpenSolaris successfully ported to an IBM Mainframe.. Was Question on Out Sourcing
Rich, I should probably not put this in because the Feb edition is not online to read yet(probably still selling in Eason's / W.H. Smith)... But the exact words of this article is this... IBM signaled another change in its relationship with Sun Microsystems by announcing the success of a project to port OpenSolaris to its mainframe for the first time. Later on in the article it says the following: James Stallings, general manager, IBM System z, said Solaris integration made perfect sense... The future of the data center lies in virtualization's ability to reduce skyrocketing energy and maintenance costs" and more...

Very clever of IBM to have I running inside VM...
