RE: [tdf-discuss] user forums ?

Stefan,

That's correct. It is http:// *.openoffice.org Forums that are being discussed.

This thread started with regard to the OpenOffice Community Forums hosted as part of http:// 
*.openoffice.org and concern that they would disappear as part of Oracle retirement of the system.  
That has not happened.  

A successful migration onto a server operated by Apache was completed last week.  That is also true 
for the MediaWiki that is part of http:// *.openoffice.org.  

I think it will be valuable for the OpenOffice.org site to link to the many other resources that 
are available to the OOo/LO/... community.  I know of at least two related Forum systems.  Thank 
you for the statistics concerning openoffice.info.  That is extremely useful.

Also, I propose that there be mailing list FAQ at AOOo that identify other lists and resources as 
well.

The migration of http:// *.openoffice.org static content is still in-progress and movement of all 
of it onto Apache-hosted servers will not happen for a few weeks.  However, the staging of improved 
content is already happening at the intended landing site.  

I'll see what can be done to have the additional information and connections to other resources 
available at the time that the cut-over goes "live."

 - Dennis

You are talking about the forums formerly hosted by Sun/Oracle, right?

There have always been pure community-driven forums at
http://openoffice.info/

This site points to Englisch, German, Bosnian, Czech, Dansk, Polish
and Portuguese forums.

The english forum there is even more populated than the forum, you
have been looking at: A total of 369768 articles. 235837 registered
users. (At least that´s what the display below the forum is showing.)

The german forum has 168152 articles in 36091 topics and 16462
registered members.

The german forum explicitely claims to be a place for OpenOffice.org
as well as LibreOffice. Maybe some TDF official could talk to the
admins and motivate them to integrate LibreOffice branding. TDF/LibO
could directly link from their Website to this forum. This would be
a good chance not to split the already established support.

Regards,
Stefan
