They were development releses.
Everone sane enough, had only option of paying Opensolaris support to have security and other updates. Only thing that was left unfulfilled was 2010 release. So no changes there with Solaris Express actually. Change is the name of binary release product (and brending) and in developing behind closed doors with some kind of promise that code will be released After .iso's are out. But yes, /dev as development releases as we know it, shifted from Opensolaris to Illumos.org and OpenIndiana.org with also releases in mind and in prospect. (and other contributing distributions, like Nexenta etc.) If followed /dev, one can follow OpenIndiana.org and Illumos.org repositories and source, like before.
