What is the OpenSolaris Project?

The OpenSolaris project is an open source community and a place for 
collaboration and conversation around OpenSolaris technology.

The community represents a wide variety of people around the world, 
including developers adding functionality to the system or customizing 
the technology for new applications and platforms; system administrators 
implementing Solaris technology in data centers; educators and students 
researching operating systems in universities; and new users exploring 
the technology and discovering that OpenSolaris offers new opportunities.

The OpenSolaris source code is already cutting edge, but innovation 
happens everywhere so we welcome your involvement.

Here's what our community has to offer right now:
