Martin, this world becomes only bitter cold if people let it down. If the community, Oracle included, sticks together and cooperates then the world may become a warmer, more friendly place to all of us.
For your question about 'shipping disks for free' and a note to Derek/Valerie: Our family get the latest Suse DVD (Tshirts and other gimmicks included) by express mail each time a new one is released. It comes from a Suse program to reward those who have made significant contributions to the Suse distribution. Derek/Valerie: Is it feasible to set up a similar program for Opensolaris to reward those who significantly contributed to Opensolaris?
