Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: connecting to oooforum.org

Hi :)  
Ok, so if it is hosted on a single server then maybe we could ask "Friends of .." or some similar 
organisations to contribute towards the costs of a new server?  or pay to get it hosted through a 
dedicated hosting service that hosts a lot of sites rather than however it is being done right now? 
 
Regards from
Tom :)
