The registration URL's for OOo 3.3 look like this:

So we should be able to handle this entirely with ASF.
I've seen (in 3.3.0, build 9567)
http://survey.services.openoffice.org/user/index.php
too.
But I thought there was another version that went directly to an
Oracle domain. Maybe that was OOo 3.4 beta 1?
OOo 3.4 beta 1 used something that currently redirects, for me, to
https://hs-ws1.oracle.com/RegistrationWeb/registration/default/en_US/register-login.jsp?legacy=true&tgtPrd=OpenOffice.org&prd=registration&uuid=urn...e588
but being a beta version it was installed by a small fraction of users,
and anyway the page works (it is an Oracle account registration, which
is probably useless to OpenOffice users, but is online).
I'm not suggesting that 3.4.0 be updated to include registration,
merely that it would be helpful to direct users of 3.3 to the new
version, and let them know that the registration step has not failed.
So I'd propose to ask Infra to redirect the whole domains
https://registration2.services.openoffice.org/
http://registration2.services.openoffice.org/
http://survey.services.openoffice.org/
to something that explains that OpenOffice.org is now at Apache. I've
looked at some options on the openoffice.org website, but the best
candidate seems to be a blog post:
https://blogs.apache.org/OOo/entry/openoffice_org_is_now_apache
Does anyone have better links to propose? Otherwise I guess we can ask
Infra to setup the redirection.

Andrea.
