Re: [osol-discuss] OpenSolaris as WiFi access point
OpenSolaris desperately needs middleware. It is typical example. There are lot ofARM-based routers available on the market today for home use and small/mediumenterprises. They usually have Linux installed. I wonder what will happen if we haveall middleware ported on SunOS. Will we see huge adoption of OpenSolaris?
