I was involved at one point on behalf of Pivot (where we have several projects), and Andrea Pescetti on behalf of Open Office was also involved (since they have a bunch of stuff there). But things have gone quiet for about 2 months. There was a second prototype that looked pretty good (to us). But, I don't know the state of things now.
It was not me personally, but the OpenOffice project as a whole. We are now using http://sourceforge.net/projects/oooextras.mirror/files/ in the OpenOffice trunk and it works for us (our needs are limited to storage of some optional build dependencies; for the record, Github won't allow that).
http://sourceforge.net/directory/apache_extras is the link to the latest proposal for an ASF-wide replacement. There was little interest all times the matter was discussed on this list, so OpenOffice just moved on and started using the SourceForge space.
