Agree.

I do want to note here that I'm definitely in the camp with those concerned
about the project wanting to use the designation OpenSolaris Distro.
(Should that designation even be claimable by a project? If yes, does the
Indiana project get to claim it?) But working out tricky issues like that
is one of the big reasons the Indiana project urgently needs its own
website space and mailing list. So an enthusiastic thumbs up from me.
