Some Linux Critiques By Way Of A Solaris Dissenter

,----[ Quote ]
| A Linux/Solaris/BSD distribution is a whole ecosystem, and that's one of the 
| problems with the state of the whole thing right now. It's got too little in 
| common, by design, with other distributions. The sheer weight of the project, 
| the burden of maintaining things that by all rights should have been made at 
| least halfway automatic ages ago, falls on too few shoulders.

OpenSolaris: how long will it be with us? 

,----[ Quote ]
| One cannot expect from OpenSolaris what one gets from GNU/Linux; a project 
| that has been running for a short time cannot be expected to match a much 
| older one in terms of software offerings. With each release, OpenSolaris 
| offers more packages.

Some notes on OpenSolaris 2009.6

“Analysts sell out - that’s their business model… But they are very concerned
that they never look like they are selling out, so that makes them very
prickly to work with.”

                                –Microsoft, internal document
