Goto https://GitHub.com/Apache/OpenOffice-org/ to enter the current website 
“house”.

Read the docs and look at the branches. Educate yourself to the current 
technical details.

Ask educated questions after Jan 1 in a single email in a new thread.

We also have the svn repos which has all the changes from Dec 2011-Oct 2020. 
Trust me for now. I’ll provide a URL in a few days.

The ASF keeps all of repositories on our infrastructure forever.

All changes and builds are logged. Look at comm...@openoffice.apache.org

Thanks,
Dave
