Oracle And Open Office

The fact that Oracle now supports Open Office is a cause for concern. Will they continue to be the benefactors? Will they fork it into a 'freemium' model? We need to see community activity here!

Why is anyone paying for Microsoft Office these days when OpenOffice can pretty much do everything it has.

Paid OpenOffice Version?

I saw that Oracle that owns Openoffice now actually sells it as a packaged software. I could not tell what benefits Oracle offer by me paying them. I love using OpenOffice and had been saving me lots of money, but wonder if I really need support from Oracle.

Apache Software Foundation Lays Out its Plan for OpenOffice

All the way back in June, we covered Oracle's announcement that it would move OpenOffice.org to a community-based project overseen by the Apache Software Foundation. Oracle, of course, inherited OpenOffice as part of its acquisition of Sun Microsystems, in addition to many other open source projects that Oracle suddenly controlled. At the time of Oracle's announcement, The Document Foundation said that there would be no merger of the LibreOffice suite with OpenOffice, but that it would gladly accept any developers wishing to leave OpenOffice.org. Now, in an open letter, the Apache Software Foundation has made its plans for OpenOffice clear, including an Apache-branded OpenOffice suite targeted at developers coming next year.



LibreOffice's Mobile and Cloud Horizons Appear Strong

Ever since LibreOffice, the productivity suite forked from OpenOffice, started to take shape, questions have arisen about how its trajectory might differ from OpenOffice's. This week, the LibreOffice Conference is going on, and The Document Foundation is generating some buzz through the announcement that versions of the suite will arrive for iOS and Android devices, giving LibreOffice a strong mobile footprint. Susan covered the news here. It's also very good news that the suite will arrive in a cloud-based version that could compete closely with Google Apps and other cloud-centric productivity tools.



LibreOffice Out in New Version, with Oracle a Big Contributor

The LibreOffice suite of productivity applications is now available for download in version 3.4.2, for Linux, Windows and the Mac. If you've been using a previous version, it's a good idea to upgrade to this one via the download page, as there are a number of bug fixes. This is the third release of the new LibreOffice 3.4 code line.



Can't get Open Office to work on Mac 10.3.9

I downloaded Open Office 2.4.0 then had to download X11. But everytime I try to open OO it closes again promptly. I am running OSX 10.3.9. Is that the correct version of Open Office? Upgrading to a new version of the operating system isn't the solution I would prefer, btw. unless *absolutely* necessary. Thanks!
