Solaris 10 is a current production release, but it's not the only one.
Exadata & Exalogic machines ship with Solaris 11 Express, which seems to count
as production to me.   Of course, the price of those includes support to get
fixes that have been developed since the original Solaris 11 Express release
in November.

Or in the Storage Appliance 2010.Q1 and later releases, but those are only
available for those appliances, not any other computers.
