I would say that your way to OpenSolaris consists from following steps:

Yes, there are differences. And these diffs have good reasons.

I want that they stay so, because just for one (and important) example the

Maybe the Solaris people should adapt some things from Linux. But I vote for
staying in the Solaris way. I don't vote as the linked press articles say for
bringing more Linux-isims into (Open)Solaris.
