Well, in the case of the first site: www.ooo-portal.de I think this should be removed not for any spam but because the operator removed, TTBOMK, the forum with he opened the new site lo-portal.de, so really there is no good reason to list it on this page any longer. In the case of the second listed site: www.openoffice-forum.de I would think this site should be removed for somewhat the same reason. The owners have since opened a LibreOffice specific site and I kind of think this site is being left behind - Guenter is not the first person to bring up problems at the site, only the first one to do so on this list. The third site: forum.sun.com - well that is just gone..so easy call there :) Anyway, just my opinion and I would certainly defer to folks in German speaking lands on what finally to do.
