h1. OpenSolaris Users

If you are already using OpenSolaris or have not yet given it a try, see the OpenSolaris downloads on [OpenSolaris.com|http://opensolaris.com]. The Image Packaging System forms the underlying packaging and network repository system for the OpenSolaris downloads available from OpenSolaris.com.

If you are looking for ready-to-run examples of using pkg(5) on multiple OS platforms, see the [Examples|Examples].

If you are looking for pkg(5)-enabled tools for your Ant or Maven build environments, see the [Producing and Maintaining Packages] document for information about build environment-specific downloads.
