SchilliX 0.7.1 Released Atop The Final OpenSolaris Code

Posted by Michael Larabel on August 31, 2010

Earlier this month there was the release of Nexenta Core Platform 3.0 as the last likely release of this OpenSolaris + Ubuntu Hardy mix to be based upon the original OpenSolaris Nevada code-base with Oracle killing the project so now they have the Illumos OpenSolaris fork to utilize. Today there's another OpenSolaris community OS release, this time in the form of SchilliX, which is the OpenSolaris derivative created by two German developers.

SchilliX 0.7.1 is this new release and it is based upon the OpenSolaris ONNV source-code from build 146 with some extra patches. OpenSolaris build 147 is the last source revision from Oracle to be made public.

The SchilliX 0.7.1 release announcement can be found on osol-discuss. The SchilliX project page is on BerliOS.
