I am a good initial contact for stuff like this.  Availability will 
obviously be gated by licensing and security/privacy considerations.
For stuff like the translations and the bugzilla content, I have backups 
and we can create current snapshots.
For much of this we can move first and solve SGA second (similar to the 
source code).

Kay started this page https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/OpenOffice+Domains

We've done some editing and I started going through looking at each "project". It might be good to pick one - like about.openoffice.org - and see what it would be like to export from Kenai and import to Confluence.
