   There is not one but several. Indiana pulls it's packages from a bunch
   of consolidations. There is no single repository that you can look into:

   ON
   http://src.opensolaris.org/source/xref/onnv/onnv-gate/usr/src/
   hg clone ssh://anon at hg dot opensolaris dot org/hg/onnv/onnv-gate

   SFW
   http://src.opensolaris.org/source/xref/sfw/usr/src/
   http://opensolaris.org/os/downloads/sfw/

   FOX
   http://src.opensolaris.org/source/xref/fox/fox-gate/
   hg clone ssh://anon at hg dot opensolaris dot org/hg/fox/fox-gate

   JDS
   http://src.opensolaris.org/source/xref/jds/
   svn co svn+ssh://anon at svn dot opensolaris dot 
org/svn/jds/spec-files/trunk spec-files

   IPS
   http://src.opensolaris.org/source/xref/pkg/
   hg clone ssh://anon at hg dot opensolaris dot org/hg/pkg/gate

   G11N
   http://src.opensolaris.org/source/xref/nv-g11n/
   http://opensolaris.org/os/project/nv-g11n/documents/repository/

   Network Storage
   http://opensolaris.org/os/project/nws/
   http://opensolaris.org/os/project/nws/nws-src-20080414.tar.bz2

   Docs
   http://opensolaris.org/os/downloads/docs/
   http://dlc.sun.com/osol/docs/downloads/current/

   Man pages
   http://opensolaris.org/os/downloads/manpages/
   http://dlc.sun.com/osol/man/downloads/current

   Developer Product Tools
   http://opensolaris.org/os/downloads/devpro/

   Caiman (Umbrella Project, includes installer, distro constructor etc.)
   http://src.opensolaris.org/source/xref/caiman/
   hg clone ssh://anon at hg dot opensolaris dot org/hg/caiman

   There are a few bits and pieces in the form of redistributable binaries
   for which no source is available yet.

Moinak.
