I at least understand the proposal but I don't support it because the multi language sets are not use friendly at the moment.
We wouldn't link to it from the main download pages anyway.
And of course the question is for what we do need the binaries on this mirrors if they are not found or used by the majority of our users.
It's a secondary mirror system. Although due to the usual size/bandwidth considerations the OpenOffice project uses SourceForge, Infra did significant work to be able to offer OpenOffice on the Apache mirrors. We can do without it completely, but we can also make their life easier (last time they needed a full week to propagate OpenOffice to all mirrors) by storing there one multi-lang installer only.
Do we have any numbers of downloads from these mirrors?
No. We assume they are negligible, but we literally neglect them in our download statistics.
That said, I honestly don't know how much the additional workload would be: is it only an additional option on the builbots (or build machines) configuration or will it be needed to adapt other scripts and waste a lot of time?
