When I look at the page entitled "Get the Source for OpenSolaris", I 
notice that the very first link in the test says "download the 
complete codebase". Okay, if I want to download the OpenSolaris 
source, I am going to come to this page. Then I am going to click on 
this link. So what happens then?

What happens is it takes you to the regular opensolaris.org download 
page, which has no links at all that mention source code, except one 
that takes you back to the previous page. The one place that source 
code is actually mentioned is to get the source for the man pages.

Now assuming I know that what I am looking for is the source for 
Nevada, aka the ON consolidation, I might click on the link that says 
"Operating System/Networking (ON)". This takes me to a page called 
"Operating System/Networking (ON) Download Center". When you get to 
the bottom of this page there is finally a section called "Where can I 
get the source and other tar files?" and in this section there are 
several options that will finally get you the source code.

This seems a little difficult to follow considering that you started 
on a page that says it is the place to go to get the source.
