[openbeos] Re: Who wants obedn.com?

Bummer -- Jason was doing such a nice job.  If we can find someone
competent to do the job (sure isn't me), I would suggest moving as much
content as we can to the sourceforge site, and pointing the obedn.com
URL there.  Centralizing the information is good for a project of this
size, especially at this stage where we're still trying to get
everything organized.
