I really can´t see any benefit in ruling out people who might want to be lurking for a while. One still can disable guest posts to avoid spam attacks and motivate people to join if they have questions. Seing that there *is* contents to find in a forum makes it easier for me join. Why should I, if there only is a meager announcements forum and a converting to revolution forum with a single post by the site admin shown when not logged in? As far as I can see there even is no announcment whatsoever that there is more to find, if you register. If I wouldn´t know, I would think it´s not worth joining, as I would not find anything there...

Hiding from customers, intended or not, rarely sends a positive message.

Given the number of people who've been requesting guest read-only access to the forum (not to mention the self-evident benefit of doing so), if the plan is to keep those forums around for a while it would seem reasonable to expect guest access in place as soon as could be conveniently done.
