@foo: That I don’t know, but I do know from working on OpenSolaris how long it can take to free up licence-encumbered code, so it could be a little while yet even if they’re already working on it. I’m afraid I’m not privy to their product roadmap, though…

I just realized that it is a new package (virtualbox-2.1), so you won’t be upgraded automatically if you’ve got the virtualbox repo enabled with virtualbox-2.0 installed. You’ll have to manually install virtualbox-2.1. Also, if using the repo, don’t forget to install dkms so that kernel modules can be reconfigured every time you update vbox!
