Hi Everyone!
I'm starting to sift thru the generic list of "marketing" collaterial 
pieces that sara has suggested for the anniversary.

Here's an interesting one...5 most important things to know about 
OpenSolaris....it's in a couple of field pitches and on the sun website 
from the original launch last year.
Time to update!


1--Sun has open sourced the Solaris Operating System, and Solaris is now 
an open source operating system

2--OpenSolaris is an open source project, a source base, a community, a 
website – NOT a distribution

3--New releases of Solaris are built from portions of the OpenSolaris 
code base--Solaris is a fully tested, and supported distribution of 
OpenSolaris source code.

4--OpenSolaris contains source code for the major innovations in Solaris 
10 – things like DTrace, Containers, Predictive Self Healing, ZFS

5--OpenSolaris is open source – CDDL is OSI-approved, best license for 
businesses—processes in community are transparent and governed by community


Are these the Top 5?

;)
