OpenSolaris has public mailing lists, referred to as "discussions', that cover a variety of subjects. There are community- and project-specific lists as well as general lists (e.g., 'discuss' and 'code'). If you are new to OpenSolaris and need help with installation you can post your questions to the opensolaris-help forum.
To get a feel for the current hot topics in the community, we suggest reviewing the opensolaris-discuss list. This is also a good place to ask general questions about the OpenSolaris community, but please use opensolaris-help for installation issues.
OpenSolaris discussions are focused on OpenSolaris technology.
Our mailing lists are powered by mailman, integrated with Jive forum software, to easily allow users to browse and search the archives of past conversation quickly. In addition, registered users can post directly to the mailing lists using the provided web interface.
If you only wish to follow responses to a particular thread within a list, click Watch this Thread on the corresponding Jive Forum page.
Once you have subscribed you can change your options for the web interface or by sending email to listname dash request at opensolaris dot org.
