    Hi All:

         Wanted to ask some questions on the OmniOS package repo:

    1) As new stable OmniOS releases are published, are the new packages
    added to the omnios repo, so that a pkg update command would update a
    system to the latest stable release?

    2) Is there some plan on when the omnios repo is updated?  For example,
    are all of the changed packages installed simultaneously into the OmniOS
    repo, or do they trickle in over a long time span?

    3) Will there be announcements when the omnios repo is updated?

    3) If I install the bloody release, can I add (or maybe it is already
    added, I haven't tried it yet), the omnios repo?

    4) Will there be a repo for bloody releases?

    5) If I do image a system with the bloody release, and add the omnios
    repo, and do a package update, (assuming I wait till the repo is updated
    to something beyond what is already installed on my server), will the
    update than put me back in the stable line, or will it be something else
    (somewhere between stable and bloody?)

    thanks in advance for the answers,

    Paul
