ODFAuthors.org is a separate entity and will continue to function. The mailing list @ odfauthors will be unaffected by other changes. (That's why I set it up, because I knew that eventually the OOo lists would be discontinued.) Apache OpenOffice docs can continue to be produced through ODFAuthors, as can docs for LibreOffice. Kenai is the platform on which the old OpenOffice.org website was hosted, before it was migrated to Apache. And yes, I'm almost back from my awesome 3-week trip to Antarctica. I'm in New Zealand and should be home in another 2 days. Lots to catch up on then!
