All,
On 7 December 2007, Sun Microsystems Inc. announced [0] a new million-
dollar fund to foster innovation in six of the open-source projects it
sponsors and contributes to. We are pleased to report that
OpenOffice.org was included. The contest, which we have titled the
OpenOffice.org Community Innovation Program, commences tomorrow, 30
January, and we invite OpenOffice.org Community members to participate.
What do you have to do to enter? To win a prize? Our rules, which will
be posted later on today and linked to the OpenOffice.org homepage (www.openoffice.org
), explain these and many other details, and you must read them
carefully.
What are we looking for? In general terms, we are looking for
superlative work that is useful to the Community; work that is
challenging, that is non-trivial, and that furthers the Community as
much as the software. You can enter alone or in a team; and if you are
eligible, you could win a lot of money. But we explain all this in the
rules, the link to which you will be able to find on the
OpenOffice.org homepage.
Note: The Program ends 23 June 2008 and begins 30 January 2008.

The Members of the Program Committee
