Should we move this link to
http://extensions.libreoffice.org/extension-center where our users could
search for further extensions? What do you think?
I think all links referenced from LO (the software) should use

http://hub.libreoffice.org based links

so have it point to hub.libreoffice.org/extensions [with optional
parameters like ?ver=3.6.4&os=win&lang=fr_FR]

That than can redirect appropriately.

I think that needs some extra development from my side.
I fail to see how that would require any development on your side.
hub.libreoffice.org/extensions would just redirect to
http://extensions.libreoffice.org/extensions-center or whatever URL we
want.

hub won't host any content itself (it could display stuff like "your
version is old, you should consider updating" or similar before
redirecting, and could also redirect to different sites depending on
the version and langauge/os that is passed along with the service-URL,
but currently it just redirects..

Example: http://hub.libreoffice.org/file-a-bug

It is just an abstraction. You cannot change URLs in LO that is
installed on the users' computer, but you can easily change a
redirection.
then let's try if that would work for us. Could you create such a
redirection and we evaluate if that helps our users to get their
extensions more easily?

Regards,
Andreas
