So OpenSolaris is dead and useless. JTD and Vihan do not bother proving otherwise, because certain class of people will never listen. The Sun UltraSPARC T1 certainly is not. So check out the above link.
It was almost dead. But gpl anything and they rise from the ashes. there are more brains in the rest of the world than in the place u happen to be.
Yes. This is the more important fact, than arguing whether it was dead or alive.
KG is not completely wrong.
As I said, this dead or alive discussion is useless. What is important is we get to look at more code, and learn from it.
