There is (currently) no "stable" release of OI. Your choices are to
stay with whatever system you happened to install (it works!), or
update to the most recent "pre-stable" release. I'm unable to find
anything newer/more stable than this:
http://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/oi_151a_prestable1+Release+Notes

After refreshing the repositories with "pkg refresh --full", you may
or may not need to first update pkg ("pkg install -v
pkg:/package/pkg") before doing the full system upgrade (I did when
going from 151a to 151a-pre0).
