Sorry I can't help, but add a small amount of input..

Disclaimer: Jive software has been kind enough to give us (OSUNIX) a 
complimentary license to their clearspace community..

While I haven't stress tested clearspace community to the extent of 
opensolaris.org traffic it's exactly what /we/ need.  I realize that 
Jive software products aren't open source and that you're using an 
ancient version.  However, replacing it with only a wiki instead of the 
newer version (which is awesome) seems strange. (Pardon some ignorance 
since I only know a part of the plan)

At the very least this is what comes to mind..

1) There would probably be a clear upgrade path
2) It balances wiki/community/forums all in one
3) I don't work for Jive software, but I'd bet they are more than happy 
to work with the opensolaris community on any issues/feature
4) afaik it scales very well and a lot of F500 companies are using it
...

Thanks..
