We tried to reorganize a few months ago, but most of the communities
felt that giving up their top-level status diminished their importance
and they didn't want any part of it.

(As I understand, the OpenSolaris structure was designed after
 the Apache Foundation structure, but they're more of a loosely
 affialiated group of software projects than something trying to
 produce a coherent OS, so it may not have been the best fit.)
