A lot of that was presented at the community town hall two weeks ago - you
can see the slides from the initial talk, and listen to recordings of the
lightning talks (5 minute summaries from about 20 project teams about what
they're working on for areas like audio drivers, NWAM, power management,
etc.) at:

desktop-discuss is the best place to ask GNOME/JDS questions.

The Device Driver community have some of their plans listed on their  
community homepage: 

For more specific questions, you should probably ask on their mailing  
lists:

A quick google search shows that the gate is based on 2.24:

  http://opensolaris.org/os/project/jds/contributing/building/

and that it was integrated around build 99:

You'll probably want to contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
That's where discussions about the desktop software are held.

I'm not sure that's on-topic for any OpenSolaris list (why would Sun's
marketing be an open source issue?), but if it is, I'd guess that'd
also be something for the desktop group.

How about driver support? As we know the best driver model is now for Windows, 
but how about Solaris?
Maybe there is possible Sun Microsystems to sponsor Jungo driver development 
tools to allow them to use for free.
I see that driver adoption is very slow.

The GNOME 2.23.91 is integrated into nevada 99 and 2.23.92 for nevada 
100 and 2.24.0 is scheduled for nevada 101.

  What information are you looking for? We planned to have GNOME 2.24 
for OpenSolaris 2008.11 as this is more or less set.

I believe this has been discussed before somewhere in the 
desktop-discuss alias. As you may have noticed that the desktop choices 
on the login manager has already been moved away from JDS :) (not sure 
since what build)

It will be available in OpenSolaris 2008.11, and SXCE/Nevada b101.
