Hi :) If it is a completely independant forum and one that is owned by the community could we just copy it and host on TDF or LO servers? Alternatively might they be in a better position to ask Apache to host it or donate a better server to them? or could TDF donate a better server to them? There are neutral 3rd parties such as "Friends of OpenDocument", ODFAuthors, OASIS.
I can't believe they and everyone else considers the pages hold are so worthless that they still haven't been able to gather support. Do they use "Creative Commons" or other copy-left licenses or would they be annoyed if we just copied the whole lot onto somewhere safer?
