Solaris Express Developer Edition 5/07 is available now, and there are a lot of new features and packages within this distribution.
A couple of the interesting ones:
- Glassfish Application Server (have to check the version)
- Sun Studio 12
- PostgreSQL 8.2.4
- Apache 2.2.3 (have to check if mod_ldap is already compiled…)
- and many more…
Full detailed what’s new pdf.
Hope to have these packages with Solaris 10 for production, soon. With Solaris 10, we’ re still on apache 2.0.x..
Tomcat and mysql bundled with Solaris 10 are also quite a bit too old for web2.0 projects, which we have in production today.
Currenty, I don’t findy any VMware images to download, only the usual setup DVD download.
