But...It is part of the Developer or the Derivatives? I would say Developer, as the main target for Indiana would be developers.

Something like the repository of VM's that vmware provides ? That way I could upload a freeswitch livecd, maybe later other projects as well ... I am sure it would develop fast into an impressive range of appliances How about members being able to upload their selfmade appliances ? Something like the repository of VM’s that vmware provides ?

When you boot the liveDVD it starts a local instance of that repository. Local users then connect to that machine, rather than pkg.opensolaris.org and receive updates a bit quicker - great for universities or user-groups with low bandwidth. Optionally, the LiveDVD could blast it's copy of the repository to an attached disk, and then refresh it from pkg.opensolaris.org, essentially allowing local users to more easily mirror pkg.opensolaris.org.

You need also databases for Web Developer Kit (SQLite, MySQL or PostgresSQL). And if there is Rails, why not also Django or any other framework. PS.

It should have a zone or jail or something that does web serving of content from http://solaris/Photos/ http://solaris/Music/ http://solaris/Movies/ of course Photos Music Movies could be separate ZFS pools tuned for each type of content and accessible (or not) via SMB/NFS (even ZFS to the sun, apple and bsd folks) as well as the web. A nice search engine would turn it into a Google GSA clone (maybe opengrok or xapian would work but non text files need indexing too ...). Does Beagle/Mono run on opensolaris? :) FreeBSD based FreeNAS.org is almost ready to do the home storage appliance thing using ZFS and geom journaling etc - opensolaris should be in the game :) How about a super easy to use home/SME “digital storage vault” type appliance so opensolaris will play nice with all the home electronics media needs?
