 This README describes pkgsrc on a variety of Solaris-derived operating
 systems.  It corresponds to pkgsrc/platform/SunOS.mk.  The relevant
 operating systems are:
-  - Solaris (from Sun/Oracle, also Sun Solaris, Oracle Solaris)
-  - OpenSolaris (from Sun)
   - illumos (open-source fork, OpenIndiana, OmniOS, SmartOS, and others)
+  - Solaris (from Sun/Oracle, also Sun Solaris, Oracle Solaris)
+  - OpenSolaris (from Sun; superseded long ago by illumos)
 
-OpenSolaris has not been maintained for a very long time, so the only
-platforms of interest are Oracle Solaris and illumos distributions.
-As of 2022, pkgsrc is believed to work well on Oracle Solaris and
-illumos.  pkgsrc is not currently known to work on SunOS 4 or
-OpenSolaris.
+As of 2022, the primary platforms of interest where pkgsrc is known to
+work well are illumos distributions, Solaris 10, and Solaris 11.

 Prerequisites
 -------------
 
 You will need a working C compiler.  The two known options are gcc and
-Sun/Solaris Studio.  gcc can come from Sun, or other places.  On some
-systems, there is only one feasible choice.

 As with pkgsrc on other platforms, one should use the same compiler
 family and ideally the same compiler version for building all packages.
