This gets a +1 from me.

Yep, I'm interested in helping - "timf" is my opensolaris.org user name.

Fwiw, I'm currently in favour of calling a distribution "OpenSolaris",
but I'm also interested in exploring the options and promise to keep an
open mind.

As soon as the project is started, could we propose a timeline for
putting the branding proposal together? Indiana previews this month, and
should ship in March '08, and it's pretty dependent on what we end up
deciding, so my suggestion would be:

 - proposal sent to advocacy community Nov 23rd
 - vote put up on opensolaris.org 17th - 21st Dec
 (dates totally picked out of the air, but it's a start)

	cheers,
