Opening the Java Desktop System

After some hard work, the Java Desktop System is now open on opensolaris.org! Based on Gnome 2.10, this is a newer version of the desktop than you can get on Solaris 10 today. The web pages tell you how to build it and how to contribute to it. This is a great chance to see how OpenSolaris is getting better at usability, not to mention a great way to help make OpenSolaris the premiere desktop OS out there.


Congratulations to the team for getting this out!

As a user of JDS since madhatter beta days, I'm glad it's out in the community now. When will see this in Solaris Express?

It's already in Solaris Express, or will be very shortly. I can never remember the exact timing, but essentially Solaris Express lags OpenSolaris by a few weeks.
