This URL makes me think that if I just sit down and figure out how to compile OpenSolaris, I can try b114 now^h^h^h eventually ? I am really eager to try out the new quota support.. has someone already tried compiling it perhaps? How complicated is compiling osol compared to, say, NetBSD/FreeBSD, Linux etc ? (IRIX and its quickstarting??)

If you like I can ping you when we're done packaging onnv_115. I'm trying to resolve some tricky issues, but I would assume days from now.
From there to build the source of any release is pmerge -1 onnv-gate or
for a specific version pmerge -1 =onnv-gate-115. I could go into great detail how /we/ community developers face(d) many difficulties building onnv-gate. I doubt I would ever call it a "straight forward process" and I don't see it changing for *Solaris distro any time soon. imho the legacy scripts (bldenv + nightly) are very poorly documented for how opensolaris.sh affects Makefile.master*

This may help give more concise instructions. If you find errata please ping me and I'll update it.

Good luck,
