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".

I don't think would be in the best Novell interest to stop OpenSolaris.
They already pissed off lots of people from the community, when they made the deal with Microsoft.
Now, suppose they move on to stop OpenSolaris. It would put them in the very strange situation where they use, or have free access to, code from lots of projects (FOSS code) and at same time make impossible to the same community to have access to code NOT MADE by Novell. That would be really awful.
Only a lunatic would act like that and pretend to be part of the community. And if they do act, this would really trigger I way bigger response from both, developers and users.
