Presently the OOo initiative has several hundred if not thousands of members. Some of them even get paid. There are a number of developers donated by SUN Microsystems, and various user lists, language forums, discussion dialogues and the such. This doesn't even scratch the surface of users manual and permanent archiving needs of guides and reference material.

I would like to extend the idea of implementing the advantage of taking ahold of Various OOo blogs, for different initiatives that are being worked on for OOo, and an OOo wiki designed to provide adaptable content to users as the software, and the communities grow. This would allow users, administrators, user support, and discuss members, as well as various language lists to collectively share their knowledge in a centralized, open environment.

* I found this page on WikiPedia >> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Openoffice.org

* A new public wiki could be sponsord here in the mean time >> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Openoffice.org

* MediaWiki can be launched on a server inside sun or remotely to host their own wiki.>> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mediawiki

I like MediaWiki because it has been designed with the user in mind, and with the internet in mind. The software is still evolving, and works very well in my opinion.

Does anyone like these ideas? I don't see how OOo and its supporters have anything to lose really, except maybe a few keystrokes.
