Hello,

Please be so kind to add IllumOS.org and Openindiana (OpenIndiana.org)
OpenSolaris based distribution to he list at the adress:

http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Community+Group+distribution/links

Number of users is slowly growing as OpenSolaris binary distribution
alternative and number of contributions in Illumos as future base of
OpenIndiana is growing.

So please be sure to list New project and distribution to the list.
Thank you.

While adding OpenIndiana makes sense to me, I'm not sure Illumos fits on
that list as it's not a full OS distribution that end users can just
download and install.

(The above link needs to have the "Sun Distributions" section replaced
as well.)

It would also make sense to either add OpenIndiana to the distro list on
http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Main/downloads or to change that page
to point to the Community+Group+distribution/links so there's only one list
to maintain instead of two.

I agree.....

Illumos has the same relation to OpenIndiana as Schillix-ON has to Schillix.

OpenIndiana and Schillix are distros, Illumos and Schillix-ON are both forks on
the Solaris-ON source consolidation.
