  It does look promising.  The guy working on SPARC support has run it
on an astonishing array of systems.  His last release was a LiveDVD,
because he hadn't finished the installer yet.  He was supposed to have
finished that recently but hasn't; it's evidently taking longer than he
expected.

He's one guy with a job and a life. It's amazing he's done what he has so far!

I really need to get to trying to get OmniOS built for SPARC.

  I couldn't really "lose interest" on this end; Solaris does
*everything* around here, whether I'm interested or not, and whether
Oracle is sleazy or not.

I'll run something Illumos based over anything Linux based any day of the week.
