Some good news related to the web stack package repository at 
http://pkg.opensolaris.org/webstack/

The pkg limitation which required patching pkg to access the
repository has been fixed this week. This means you can now install
experimental packages from the web stack repository with a standard
install of IPS, no changes needed!  I wrote up more details here:

In addition to the previously available packages, Amanda gave me a
nightly build of the lighttpd packages (which are currently still in
development) and I've added them to the repository. So please try them
out and send any comments to the list and/or to Amanda, so they can be
improved before final integration.

I'm expecting/hoping all future integrations will start making
nightly/semi-nightly builds available starting very early in the
development process so we can all try things out early (instead of too
late in the cycle as has been the case too often so far).
