As for BP rewrite, Darren already noted, it is in a whole special class of "hard to do". As for the community involvement: we welcome everybody at Illumos. It's of course impossible to do predictions of future feature progress, but we have our own stuff in the works and unlike the opensolaris.org website (don't know about the mailing lists), we won't plan on winding down by the end of next month. If the fine people at Oracle keep a good pace, it's possible you'll see a steady stream of improvements from them as well (though I personally suspect that they'll hand you the improvements in one hand and a hefty invoice in the other).
