    So, there you have it ... software is not free, and for something as complex
    and slick as OmniOS, there is serious money involved in keeping it at its
    current level.

    It seems that OmniTI has not managed to get this message
    across to the many organizations relying on OmniOS to run their
    Servers.

    Robert has suggested that he hopes that 'the community' will take up
    the maintenance of omnios in the future ... but I wonder ... now that we know
    what is going to happen. Do you think your organisation would be prepared
    to spend some 'real bucks' on keeping OmniOS maintained professionally?

    I think we would be looking at something like ~500k USD per year.

    For 1-2 People to continue running the show.

    I have setup a chat on Gitter ...

       https://gitter.im/PostOmniOS/Lobby

    lets meet there and discuss.

    cheers
    tobi
