Marketing ... any trademark issues here with the name?

i-team ... should we respond to this? Are we going to have wiki 
functionality on the site?

The OpenSolaris Wikicity is ready!
http://opensolaris.wikicities.com

Nothing much on it right now.  I've put in stub pages for some
FAQs right now.  We will need the FAQs filled up as well as pages
for the HCL as well as a list of project ideas for people to
start getting involved in.  Did I miss anything?

To get started editing, have a look at the small FAQ I put
together:
http://opensolaris.wikicities.com/wiki/Wikicities_FAQ

Don't worry about messing up things right now.  If a page gets
seriously messed up, we can always roll it back to an older
revision.  The important thing right now is get some useful
information out there.
