FreeBSD has ZFS too. We've been seeing a lot of people migrating from OpenSolaris over the past few months due to Oracle.

I wonder if the OpenSolaris people would consider a merge? Ie, work on zones, any useful Solaris management tools, etc...
FreeBSD already has jails, so there's no point bringing in Solaris zones; but we're generally quick to bring in features from OpenSolaris. DTrace, for example, is available for the FreeBSD kernel now, and work is underway to make it available for FreeBSD userland too.
