The WHOIS only provides the registration for the base domain name, in this case 
openoffice.org.

This is about who has the domain-name lease, not where the content is or how it 
is hosted.

In this particular case, templates.openoffice.org, a subdomain, forwards to a 
location on SourceForge.  The WHOIS tell you nothing about subdomains.  They 
are not registered.

Also, Apache Infrastructure is not about management of content, but providing 
the basic service.  In this case, the www.apache.org web site and also the 
subdomain setup.  But the content is either under control of the Apache 
OpenOffice project or, when forwarded to a different organization, under some 
sort of mutual operation.  Templates and Extensions are in the second category. 
 

Patricia Shanahan, on dev@, has identified a contact at SourceForge that this 
can be worked on with, and further discussion should be on dev@ where such 
technicalities are dealt with.
