Before this progresses much further, it's worth noting that all of team
DTrace is at WWDC, has met with Apple engineers previously, and will be
involved in one or more presentations today. So while the marketing
department may not include OpenSolaris in the high level overview, Apple
is not ignoring the roots of DTrace, and will not be hiding this fact
from their developers (not that they could).

Cool.
Let's see how it works out in the long run,
will we (the OpenSolaris community) get anything back from Apple and its community,
how well does CDDL work in the real world, etc. (we all know what happened to Darwin/BSD).
In terms of openness, Sun and Apple are going opposite directions IMHO, interesting situation :)
