Not sure if your email is a Q or just a statement.  
Minimal iso distributions are already available for open solaris. See 
genunix.org for other opensolaris distros. 
And if those don't work, then DC can be used to create a custom install as 
well.

I too would support a DVD iso and a minimal server iso in addition to the 
current installer. The real bonus for advocacy is a LiveDVD with OpenOffice and 
perhaps some development tools. 

In bandwith challenged countries this would also enable people to start with a 
more complete installation.

It is also possible to download the entire repository for 2009.06

Finally there is Korona which is a KDE opensolaris which comes as a single DVD.

It is also possible to roll out a DVD using Distro Constructor.

This thread has some comments from the Lead Developers on their reasoning for 
the current CD.
