how about the suggestion to buy a code signing certificate

Good idea. Let's really try to make a simple list of "What" and "Why". This should be considered as a wishlist and not a list of actions we demand: we tell the Board what could help in making our project more efficient (and we will likely ask Infra to comment on the list before we send it); the Board, while allocating resources, can use these suggestions (discussions about what budget to use may or may not be relevant, but a list of priorities would be fine for the time being).

So:

What: Buy a code signing certificate
Why [please check!]: This would allow the project to digitally sign the convenience binaries it ships, and avoid Windows and Mac OS X warnings about unsigned installers.

What: Acquire a *.openoffice.org certificate
Why: This would allow to avoid false alarms when enforcing HTTPS to browse OpenOffice sites, and give the possibility of secure login to wiki.openoffice.org and forum.openoffice.org

What: Allocate budget for additional domains
Why: This would help in transferring legacy domains to Apache, see https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-4906

What: Officially support MWiki [remember this is a wishlist!]
Why: wiki.openoffice.org is an important service to our users, with over 15K [right?] pages and many [how many?] users. And we don't want to put an additional burden on Infra without getting additional resources for it.

What: Officially support phpBB
Why: forum.openoffice.org is an important service to our users, with [numbers?]. And we don't want to put an additional burden on Infra without getting additional resources for it.

Anything else? Buildbots, Pootle?

Regards,
  Andrea.
