Since Alexandro tagged me in his original message in this thread, I'll make a quick comment.
I don't own *.services.openoffice.org nor do I administer it. I work with two services hosted there though... the OOoWiki and the OOoForum. The Wiki was already there and running when I picked up on some of the admin there. The Forum was added later via a request from the community. There are several other OOo related services domains such as Templates and Extensions.

There is no empty bank of idle servers in a data center somewhere waiting for Community apps to be deployed to them. A new service would need to be assessed, planned and coordinated etc. (it could require the deployment of new server hardware for example). There are no fixed/documented set of procedures for the Community that I am aware of, and no guarantee that any random services proposal would actually be hosted on *.services.oo.o. As others have already stated, if there is a web service that should be hosted on, or connected to *.services, then just let everyone know. Maybe this could be rolled into or suggested in the ooo-migration to Kenai (this is an opportunity to clean up some of the clutter and mystery around OOo web services) C. -- Clayton Cornell [email protected] OpenOffice.org Documentation Project co-lead Sun Microsystems, Hamburg, Germany --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
