Actually, there were only two, but they were both wrong.
"Does Openindiana provide a SPARC release?" -- maybe you could direct
the interested reader to Solaris-like systems that do support SPARC.
To the best of my knowledge, the only open-source Solaris-like system
that supports SPARC is the ancient and unsupported OpenSolaris itself,
and there are two free, but closed-source Solaris-like systems that
support SPARC, namely Oracle Solaris, and OpenSXCE. Of these two,
OpenSXCE supports a wider range of legacy hardware. All of this is,
perhaps, irrelevant in an OpenIndiana FAQ, but it wouldn't take up
much space, and there will be readers of the FAQ who are interested in
the answer.
I also think that there should be a section along the lines of: "Why
should I use OpenIndiana rather than Oracle Solaris?" because the
answer is not only that "OpenIndiana is open-source and Solaris is
not". The answer is also "OpenIndiana supports 32-bit hardware and
Solaris does not". This is a strong reason for using OpenIndiana
rather than Solaris, and yet it appears nowhere in your FAQ.
