Hi Nikola,

I guess you're late to this particular party - the way to move forward with the resources and luggage we have was indeed discussed long ago.

On the upside, whatever the naming and distribution of packages and recipes across consolidations, OI Hipster and according to plan also its expected less-bloody releases (dev, stable) after migration of all userland into one recipe repo/consolidation, are upgrade-compatible with the last OI-dev and OpenSolaris Indiana.
