I fail to see why you consider my statements "erroneous assumptions." Whether we like it or not, forums rule. The most prolific communities on the Internet are forums, or forum-like. answers.yahoo.com. facebook, Google Groups, are all forum-type communities. That I'm advocating for such is not necessarily a "personal preferences," but a recognition of what I feel, based on what I've seem elsewhere, of what the community needs to do to bring all the goodies that oi has to offer to mainstream users. If you want to promote something, I think you can make the task a bit easier if you take it to where crowds like to gather.
But is OpenIndiana ready for the desktop? If you have a box with Nvidia graphics, you might get away with a bit. What's the point in catering to end users when it's not ready? Then if you put up a forum for said end users and there is little to no experts on hand, you will just leave a very bitter taste for any end user brave enough to give OpenIndiana a try. Guess what that is going to do with OpenIndiana advocacy?
