As stated in last July's OpenOffice Board Report: --- OpenOffice, like the ASF as a whole, is hit by the announced policy change of Apache Extras. The project currently stores several libraries there, in an area known as ooo-extras, and the build process downloads them when options like --enable-category-b are used. A solution should be found at the ASF level. --- So basically I have the same questions as Roger: 1) does the Google Code change affect Apache Extras (I was assuming it does)? 2) Are there plans to make the lost functionality available in some other ways? Thanks, Andrea.
Question about Apache-Extras
Hello, I'm the Apache Pivot PMC chair, and Pivot is hosting some associated code at Apache-Extras. We're concerned about the change in policy that will not be supporting downloads anymore, and would like to know if ComDev is in discussions about this? Are there plans to move Apache-Extras somewhere else, or host the downloads at Google Drive (as Google suggests)? Or . Thanks in advance, ~Roger Whitcomb Apache Pivot PMC Chair rwhitc...@apache.org P.S. Apache OpenOffice are also concerned, so I have copied them as well. http://google-opensource.blogspot.com/2013/05/a-change-to-google-code-download-service.html

Thank you; we already have enough tasks, but we didn't find enough volunteers to mentor them. So OpenOffice won't be asking Apache to apply. Regards, Andrea.
