Read from opensolaris.org:
"It is not a final release and is intended for developers to try, test, and

If you'd like to help ensure that the final release is flawless, put your

Time to get non-technical.
When I installed the Nevada builds, I thought the look was pretty
clever. Start button at the bottom right, distinctive looking colors
and appearance, etc. I felt at home with all of the aesthetic appeal.
In fact, I hated GNOME until I tried Nevada. I applaud the Nimbus
