My take on the idea (which is a great one) is that we should piggyback
existing infrastructure and create the community within SourceForge.
Many who already contribute/want to contribute/do not know that they can
contribute to OO0 already have accounts and a presence there.

Yea i like that idea, and it will do well in terms of different
versions of stuff such as artwork and documents such as pdf's and the
like. It will enable us to not overwrite, accidently remove other
user's content and stuff as it will be version based. As for hosting
however, There are multiple places it could go, could go on the OOo
site or somewhere remote such as a storage site such
www.solo.flphost.com or www.box.net however www.box.net has a limit on
the space you can use. But yea, overall I like or even love this idea.

Many projects have extended their encouragemente of 3rd party support
to get developers jump in their peripheral branches. However they
also go as far as having the whole hosting suite for all these
projects. They usually use a web application called *Forge, taken
from sourceforge or g-force.
Other companies doing this include:
Novell
PostgreSQL community
Ruby
etc..
What are the chances to have a http://forge.services.openoffice.org
setup. This will make it easier for developers to host their projects
and actually don't get into other conflicts like hosting, etc.
Hopefully we can get more convesation over these topics.
