I would add that we need to adjust policies before we move openoffice.org from Oracle's Kenai to Apache Infrastructure. We also should have the branding, licensing and copyright as close as possible to correct at that event. It fits your goal, but deals with the external wrapper including all necessary URL rewrapping. > > Are you pursuing a conversion to Confluence or are you just talking about the > static web pages? Specifically everything that remains on openoffice.org when it comes over to Apache Infra. I agree with Kay's idea of moving code projects to a wiki, it does fit initial plans accounting for these license issues. I really hope the MediaWiki migration is successful. IMHO it would be much preferred to confluence and I think it has a larger of users in the community. I am reserved about plans for NL projects,I think we should be open to either possibility. My exposure to the de site that still had references to the sun license used for OO 1. (or 2.) is of some concern, I lean towards the Wiki for all NLs. It may be the best approach especially in terms of oversight. Regards, Dave PS.
