I think a good start would be to write up an overview of the existing
systems out there, e.g. a list of features and how they compare. Then
have a list of features which the OpenSolaris system should have.
As for pkgsrc, which was mentioned: it did originate in NetBSD, but I
think a number of the pkgsrc developers would be offended by you saying
"it's specifically targeted to NetBSD" :-)
Also, you say it (and FreeBSD ports) are "makefile-based".. Which
infrastructure would you prefer?
Lastly, what are multiple compiler sets in this context?
I guess it comes down to my first point again: a discussion of existing
systems, their features, and the desired features for OpenSolaris seems
like a necessary first step.
