We decided, based on a pretty critical bug, to update the ISO image. Those fixes have been available in pkg.opensolaris.org for some time, but as more and more people came across the bug on the downloaded ISO image (or the free media that was shipped to them), we felt the need to re-spin the ISO image instead.

Maybe I should read the feature sheet more carefully... Just to be clear, is 2008.05 now two different releases? I read in your latest post (comments now closed or I'd write this there) that it's been respun to fix some packaging bugs. Does that mean my 2008.05, downloaded nearer the time, is a different release to someone else's 2008.05? Why not call the respin something else? I wonder what “Linux zones” means.
