The Apache OpenOffice project is supporting <http://forum.openoffice.org/>.  
The volunteer administrators, moderators and other contributors to the AOO 
Community Forums have tended to also contribute to oooforum, but it was not 
affiliated with OpenOffice.org nor is it now affiliated with AOO and the Apache 
Software Foundation in any manner.  

The oooforum did (does?) provide access to a substantial German-language 
community forum, along with a few other languages not supported on the AOO 
Community Forums at this time.

It is difficult to preserve a forum, especially if the domain name changes, 
breaking all of the deep links and perhaps internal cross-references as well.  
I don't know how the ASF can do much concerning oooforum.  That may be a matter 
of my own ignorance.

Hi :)
Should TDF and Apache both be contributing to keeping it going?  Is anyone here 
able to explain it to the BoD?
Regards from
Tom :)
