This is big news.

Great move and necessary to compete in the fast growing market of data-center automation. I hope that DC/OS gets as much attention in the open-source community as Kubernetes already does.

Nobody does containers better than illumos / SmartOS with Solaris zones. Battle tested, enterprise proven technology since 2006, and SmartOS just took it to the next level, and the level beyond next with Manta, and then a level beyond that with Triton.

That's your opinion and not at all fact. Solaris really? What year is it 1999? I know nobody that uses "illumos / SmartOS with Solaris zones" nor do I ever recall seeing it as a skill that either established companies or start ups are looking for.

ZFS, kdb, mdb, FireEngine, isaexec, Crossbow, vmadm, imgadm, SMF, and FMA make it a fact, not an opinion.

Oracle being a lock-in and lawsuit heavy company make it any solution depending on them a high-risk one. That they tried to make illegal to do a clean-slate implementation of an API means they want to lock you in even more. It's best to just avoid using any I.P. from a company like that unless the licensing terms protect you in present and future.

Feel free to get your hands tied to a company like that. Whereas, there's alternatives for rest of us that are both capable and extortion-free.
