@BRicker I don't think it's really diverged much. #SunMicrosystems begat #OpenSolaris. Then Oracle unbegat it and the community begat #IllumOS by forking the last free release. There are then a bunch of distributions like #OmniOS and #Tribblix.

So .... as a late to the party observer, I'm guessing the poverty response to AArch64 by Illumos based OS'es is a signature of their pending extinction, with any number of BSD types as their ultimate supplanters?

Other indicators like the ceding of DTrace authority rights to Oracle's vultures, heralded by dtrace.org's empty threat to manifest a Linux port source, kinda implies the opensolaris train has done it's boiler, in the yard, with no Joyent rescue shunt evident.

A lot of smoke and steam, yet no tractive outcome.

Would love to be proven wrong, but evidence is very slim, that I can tell. Won't ever be waiting for a vaporware FOSS 0xide offering.

Truth be told, I'm kinda getting into #Solaris again, for the first time since the initial #OpenSolaris excitement.

Wie beliebt ist eigentlich #OpenIndiana / #Illumos als #OpenSolaris-Fortführung? Man hört so wenig über #Solaris. Ich würde naiv meinen, das müsste doch höhere Produktreife als FreeBSD haben. Solaris war doch eines der coolsten UNIX’.

I have also made an alternative theme for OpenSolaris if I wanted to use that theme. Personally I would take one with text included. Which version do you like best?
