In case you didn’t get this via oracle.com news updates — 11gR2 is out and available for download from here ….
And as I have predicted, the first distro is Linux x86 and Linux x86-64. So if you are a die-hard Solaris fan it should now be obvious (if it wasn’t already) that Linux is now officially the preferred platform (as Solaris once was but no longer is).
I actually wasn’t expecting this in September — I thought it was going to get announced closer to Oracle Open World but I am not complaining here
