Codesnippets: What is it? Who is hosting it? Do we still want it?
http://codesnippets.services.openoffice.org/index.xml
I noticed this linked to from another page. It looks a mess. But the
source does not appear to be in SVN, so I don't see any way to clean
it up.

Having it in the wiki would be nice, because then our users can find more
information in ONE place.
I am all for anything the puts information in one common URL (e.g.
wiki.openoffice.org), having to look for information on multiple sites is
not exactly user friendly (hint to Cwiki).

yes, we can do more or less the same in the wiki. Under http://wiki.openenoffice.org/wiki/API we had started to collect samples, tutorials and we can extend it to simple snippets. When we use appropriate categories we can easy navigate through the snippets etc.
I think we can either drop the external site completely or we can merge the snippets in the wiki. But in general we should extend the API section in the wiki.
Currently it looks messed but this is new and probably related to the wiki update. Some cleanup or correction is necessary.

Odd..... I had always assumed that it was an official site supported by
Sun.

OK. Thanks. So it is external and not under our control, though
obviously we could drop the DNS entry if we feel this is abandoned.
I can see how having code snippets would be useful for developers,
But can't we do most of this on the MWiki?

Here's the pointer with the e-mail address of the hoster.

contact in this case would probably be "Tom.Schindl-a-t-bestsolution.at", who has been also very
active in the Eclipse project AFAIK.

That service was and is hosted by a third party, predates the extension
site and feature for that matter.
Personally, I think it is probably superfluous these days.
