Yeah maybe then this is right moment to contribute something to the
project. ;)
One or more of those may be wrong or overstated... the problem is I'm
not equipped skill wise to know.
I'd like to hear a few comments from old hands as to whether a
low-skilled admin is still safe using oi for home lan service.
Would I be better off with one of the other branches of solaris OS, or
No it's not 'safe' because defining 'safe' is vague term. But what OS is
actually 'secure' without Admin knowing what he's doing? One always need
ipfilter firewall rules and right settings.
Thing is that OI needs manpower to release next /dev and contribution to
/dev and Hipster.
See what you can contribute yourself, because updates to OI and releases
doesn't make themselves out.
I suggest including yourself in testing and bug reporting as starting
contribution point everyone can do. We have Boot environments (BE's,
beadm) that is ideal way of doing testing and having dozens of different
whole OS versions, using all ZFS benefits for great development platform.
Current problem is connecting Hipster snapshots with new /dev release.
Upgrading from /dev to Hipster snapshot , making Hipster having versions
of 'entire' and exactly rigorous testing before releasing new /dev.
e.g. - we need you.
