The sem-official way (agreed by the Nexenta core contributors) is to have a Nexenta project page at opensolaris.org serving precisely the purpose you describe. Some people from the community are trying to view Nexenta team as "not willing to participate with the rest", although obiously the very opposite is the truth. We hope to clarify this by having official project @ opensolaris.org, although I haven't had a time to step in with the proposal.
