Dear all, I think the whole support discussion might be futile. Let's face it, OI does not have the backing commercial organization others have. But so didn't Linux in its beginnings. The rules for using OpenIndiana in a professional environment are clear and everyone can decide if lacking commercial support is acceptable or not. But then, this is where it has its strength: as long as OI stays close to Solaris, one can use it with any project - even no-budget ones - and decide where to cross border and shell out real money. And still be able to keep and apply grown experience, processes, procedures.
So, to bring the roadmap discussion to a more down-to-earth level: can anyone shed light on the current release strategy? What constitutes 'enough' progress to cut a prerelease, what defines a major release? Is there a decision body, a group or person that assigns tickets to pre- and major releases and decides when to stop? And even more concrete: would Illumos' bug tracker be the right place to define goals and track progress or would some sort of trac.openindiana.org be the way to go?
