The distro named "OpenSolaris", originally created by the Indiana project,
contains only redistributable code in the install media & main IPS repositories,
though some of that is closed source binaries released under licenses like
the OSBL.

All packages containing code which is not redistributable are isolated
to the /extra repository.
