Nah. My guess is that osol will become the Fedora of the Solaris world,
i.e. the testbed for technologies that later go into the official
Solaris. Osol will be to Solaris what Fedora is to RHEL. However, I
wouldn't expect to see much of a priority on accessibility in either
Osol or Solaris in the future, so it might be best to look for
alternatives now rather than the inevitable day when it all stops
working out of the box for us.
