I'm adding Carole and Ludo in copy as they will be able to answer more 
precisely than me
to your questions.

Our intention is to deliver in the non WOS of OpenSOlaris as described 
here :

So in a way similar to netbeans and glassfish

We were thinking that /opt would be the appropriate location for such a 
delivery.

Carole, can you help me on this ?

The procedure to use OpenDS as a naming service as been described here.
The OpenDS package delivers all the necessary schema files.
