It's been almost two months [1] since Oracle officially started assigning the various oo.o domains to the ASF. Do we have any actual progress on migrating - or at least re-branding to show Apache heritage rather than Oracle - the actual content of various oo.o sites?

In particular, I'm concerned not just about the technical/code content, but also about other content, especially oo.o sites that may require significant changes to reflect ASF ownership and Apache OOo stewardship of these domains. There are far too many different kinds of content, I imagine, to have a single way to transfer all of them, so I think we really need to just start on at least some rebranding and figuring out which ones can be moved (or changed) independently.

In particular, I'd really like to see people working on the non-code informational sites on oo.o like about, council, marketing, infrastructure (or website), and the other topics of bizdev, certification, distribution, and especially security.

Independent of the great code we've inherited, we've also inherited a rather large brand, and I think we need the PPMC to take a much more active and constructive focus on managing that.

I'm presuming the best place to get an overall view of what's being done is on the wiki, correct?
