On ooo-dev, we continue to ponder how we can support the existing 
OpenOffice.org web site and the subdomains thereof with minimal friction and 
maximum preservation of the accumulated material.  Here is a thumbnail of what 
the objectives are:
<https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/Transition+Planning> 
(with the understanding that development-focused aspects would move, at least 
in part, to Apache locations from the OpenOffice.org location).

Assuming

 1. That the OpenOffice.org domain lease is transferred to the Apache Software 
Foundation
 2. That sufficient volunteers come forward to support whatever the 
infrastructure support requirements are, and
 3. There are no legal@ objections,

Question

 4. Is it technically feasible and acceptable to have, operating on Apache 
infrastructure, the OpenOffice.org web site and subdomains as open public sites 
operating with software that would otherwise not be very tasty on Apache (PHPBB 
which is GPLd and may have some customizations, for example)?

I know that is very hypothetical in this form, but it is not worth navigating 
(1-3) unless 4 would work at the end of the day.
