Js.lists,

My needs are:
* Easy package management
There is no pkgadd or ips included in EON. You can however add IPS and retrieve 
any of its available packages.

* Easy upgrades
EON is fairly easy to upgrade and the risk is low. All you have to do is 
preserve your previous image before upgrading.  If the upgrade is not suitable 
go back to your previous image/release. You can preview the each new release by 
simply burning the image and booting, your current install would remain 
untouched.

* Stability
EON is sxce minimized so it is as stable as the matching snv_xxx release. You 
can also roll your own appliance to include only the bits you need

* Ability to run Splunk
Splunk not included but if there is an ips package or pkgadd version included 
on the snv dvd you could always add or include it if you roll your own 
appliance.

Feel free to give EON a twirl. It will only cost you CD and the time to burn 
and boot it. Or if you have a VM you can test it there. You'll know reallly 
fast if it has enough of a framework for you to add the missing bits you need 
or not. Hope that helps.
