MirrorBrain |
When we do not save this service we will loose our legacy download system how it is currently working. The legacy OOo download website is not working with the Apache method. It's not predictable how much effort and time is necessary to adjust it. |

Crash Reporter |
Before OOo is crashing it tries to collect important data (e.g., Platform/OS version, OOo build ID, loaded libraries, but of course no personal data) and send it via Internet to a server. This helps the developers to analyze the crash, identify the root cause and if possible to fix it. |

I modified templates and extensions to state that no one has volunteered and that several outages have occurred.
I also added a note to the mirror brain issue and some textual changes. The system will not be needed for Apache OO releases.
