Thanks for the great introductory note and discussion, Terry. I'd like to focus on this a little differently. Namely, sustaining OpenOffice.org as it is, at least in terms of user-facing and use-authored sections. Core development and bug reporting might be factored out of that structure to in

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:

Terry, Nice work! Your account for maintenance to the PHPBB install is admirable. No matter how OpenOffice.org becomes hosted under Apache, it looks like the key questions are support for PHP, MediaWiki, and PHPBB. I am assuming that the developer-centric aspects can move to apache.org serv

I'm not sure we are all talking about the same documentation. I suppose the OOODEV wiki is the appropriate place to be doing that documentation, whatever it is, that is intended in the guidelines. When we see the equivalent on OpenOffice.org, we should, on a per-case basis, redirect it to OOOD
