Solaris 10 to be Open Source

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the here's-hoping-people dept.

An anonymous reader writes "It looks as though Sun is going to open source their new Solaris 10 operating system. It seems to include eveything except some device drivers. They plan to model the Darwin and Fedora projects. Sounds very interesting."

    Sigh... okay, I'll spell it out for you. I'm saying that the term "more secure" needs to die; I wasn't arguing that one OS was "more secure" than another.

    Instead, the original poster should focus on what makes Solaris secure to begin with and include differentials of system security when appropriate.

    Please remove your anti-troll googles, your vision is getting blurred.
