Tim,

Saying "vision" is a misinterpretation. IOW, there's a difference
beween saying "what I see resulting is" and "my vision is" (a huge
difference, IMO).

Nevertheless, I think I see your point, and probably the following
wording would have been better for my post:

     The Indiana/SX-NG/OpenSolaris/Whatever New Distro Project will be a
     certain assemblage of OpenSolaris (Nevada) code -- just as Solaris
     Express is today. That assemblage will result in a distro that is
     vastly different (and vastly to my liking) from Ubuntu, Fedora,
     SuSE, etc -- just as Solaris Express is today.

Is that what you're getting at?

Eric
