That's possibly doable, but I think it also runs directly into one of
the (apparent) goals of Indiana: having a reference distribution that
we *want* people to see on the top-level site and download as the
preferred introduction to Solaris.

A stripped-down version would fail miserably at attracting new users,
as it'd appear (by definition) to be even less functional than what we
have today.


Don't think so, there are a lot of people that like to learn how the OS
works by learning how to fit all the pieces from scratch, a stripped-down
version would help to attract that profile.
