Some of the points we have talked about already but yes they are all valid imho

If the existing forum owner doesn't want to make a oo distribution
section. (I don't understand why he would not.  It would be best to
keep the community together)  Then I will host a premodded version of
phpbb forum) So ads will not appear on the screen.  Ads on the screen
doesnt really fit with openoffice distribution.

I own and operate windows and linux website servers across the united states.

These servers are completely owned by my company. Box, memory, hard
drives, ip addresses the whole kit n caboodle. I just thought I would
mention that since many people lease servers but you still don't have
100% control over them.
