Sun Solaris, OpenSolaris Yesterday, the OpenSolaris team released OpenSolaris 2008.05, the fruit of Project Indiana. The first review we found was published over at Blogbeebe, which is overall fairly positive. At the same time, Practical Technology believes that "OpenSolaris has finally been released just in time to die".

People are well aware of the possiblity of vendor lock-ins and OpenSolaris just seems a bit like the first free fix.


What vendor lock in are you refrering to?

I have not seen a modern piece of software that runs on OpenSolaris that can't be compiled for Linux also.
