I was thinking about this. The candidates are illumos and OpenIndiana,
which contain commits until the present time.
The first commit on illumos is from 2005.
commit 7c478bd95313f5f23a4c958a745db2134aa03244

OpenSolaris Launch
This leaves a long dark period between 32V and 2005. It'd therefore
prefer to wait, until we can get System V and early versions of SunOS
available under some type of open source license.
