Bordeaux 2.0.2 for Solaris and OpenSolaris Released

http://www.wine-reviews.net/wine-reviews/bordeaux/bordeaux-202-for-solaris-and-opensolaris-released.html

OpenSolaris future assured by Oracle

,----[ Quote ]
| At the OpenSolaris Annual Meeting, held on 
| IRC, Oracle executive Dan Roberts has 
| assured the community about the future of 
| the open source version of Solaris. The 
| statements, available as a log of the 
| meeting, have led Peter Tribble, who had 
| expressed concerns on the lack of 
| communication, to conclude "rumours of its 
| [OpenSolaris] death have been greatly 
| exaggerated".

Oracle Solaris, Linux, and OpenSolaris

,----[ Quote ]
| On the complicated side the fact is that 
| IBM has nowhere to go but Linux - and if 
| Oracle can help get OpenSolaris accepted 
| as a valid alternative on IBMâs hardware, 
| it will open up a lot of accounts. 
| Basically, where IBM account penetration 
| is the goal, OpenSolaris is the obvious 
| answer because a lot of IBM shops have 
| somebody who can understand and champion 
| what the technology offers: and once itâs 
| in the door - even if its only on x86 
| stuff - its value and availability on 
| IBMâs larger scale SMP hardware will 
| create internal conflicts whose net effect 
| will be to eventually break that account 
| wide open.
| 
| So the bottom line on all this is simple: 
| the forces that drove Sun to support Linux 
| and open source Solaris havenât changed - 
| and we can expect Oracle to sort itself 
| out accordingly with solid support for 
| applications on Lintel and for OpenSolaris 
| and its applications on IBMâs hardware.

What's the Future of Linux and Solaris at Oracle?

,----[ Quote ]
| Several of the concerns about Oracle's
| acquisition of Sun have revolved around how
| Unix technologies led by Sun would continue
| under the new ownership. As it turns out,
| Solaris users might not have much to worry
| about, as Oracle executives on Wednesday
| affirmed their commitment to preserving the
| efforts.

Oracle tag teams Solaris and Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| If you want to know what Oracle's roadmap
| is for Linux, just watch what Red Hat does.
| Oracle Enterprise Linux is just a clone of
| RHEL. Getting a sense of what Oracle really
| has planned for Solaris - aside from
| deploying it in SMP systems and clusters -
| is going to take some time. Oracle's plans
| for virtualization and system management
| are more clear.
