The project needs help to pull this type of thing and maintain it in the
long run.
Unless one or two persons volunteer and commit to rebase the branch once in
a while OpenIndiana will stay vanilla.
There is already quite a lot of work ongoing for modernizing the toolchain
and maintain the current set of packages.
LX itself is scattered across 900+ commits and merging it cleanly would
take a considerable amount of dedication :)

Kind regards,

Aurélien
