Today,
Mike,
Adam
and I had lunch with
Jeff Waugh, who is in town for LinuxWorld.
He showed us his, we showed him ours, and a great time was had by all.
I think everyone agreed that
a system with Debian packages,
Ubuntu package management,
the Solaris Service Management Facility
and (of course) DTrace would be one hell of a system.
And with OpenSolaris, this paradise seems tantalizingly attainable -- or
does original sin
prevent us from reentering the garden?

Sun has committed far too many original sins.
But maybe it's not too late for forgiveness, if your are willing to learn to do things right.

Sustaining a system is something that often gets forgotten about. Even internally in Sun products sometimes appear before its been properly thought out how to sustain them. How to create the patches, why re-delivering the packages is a bad idea, how not to nuke the customers setup in the process etc. If there are significant sins from the past in the package architecture or the tools (and I know some tools could do with some confession and penance!) then lets try and address these as opensolaris goes forward.
