I agree. It wouldn't make sense to lose the forums, that are a very important resource for end-users and one of the few resources that are still shared by OpenOffice.org and all derivatives (as the header says, they support OpenOffice.org, LibreOffice, StarOffice, and NeoOffice). And should continue to be an official part of the project, so hosted at Apache if at all possible. Regards, Andrea.
