Jane's comments make perfect sense from a business perspective, and it
is for that reason that koha-community.org will remain the official
Koha site until everyone can come together to discuss the issues. A
transition like this (merging two companies into one) can't be an easy
one and I think the new Koha site is working perfectly for us as it is
now.

This at least is my personal assumption and what I've gathered from
other discussions.
