Right, like they closed OpenJDK?  Nope still open.   OpenOffice & Hudson?
Donated to well-respected open source foundations.   Hell, as OpenIndiana
proves, even without ON/kernel updates, there's still a lot of OpenSolaris
bits that are still open and being used by OI.

Where'd the new oi-build infrastructure come from?   What's that?
The userland code released on OpenSolaris.org earlier this year?   Who knew?!?!

Come on folks.   There are so many real actions Oracle has taken that you
can complain about that making up false ones is just plain lazy.
