- <p>Sometime last night the 5 millionth copy of <a
href="http://download.openoffice.org";>Apache OpenOffice 3.4</a> was
downloaded. Over 5 million downloads in 6 weeks. To put
this in perspective, <a href="http://www.ssb.no/folkendrkv_en/";>the population
of Norway</a> just hit 5 million earlier this year. That's a lot of
OpenOffice!</p>

- Incubation at the Apache Software Foundation.) </p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>If you look at a <a
href="http://people.apache.org/%7Erobweir/aoo-downloads.html";>chart of our
daily download numbers</a> you see that the download rate has increased in the
past two weeks. This is caused by our recent enabling of the update
notification server. Installations of the previous version of
OpenOffice, version 3.3.0, check our servers once a week to see if a new
version of OpenOffice is available. So we're now getting a mix of
new installs a [...]
- <p>So what are we doing in the project other than counting download
numbers? Quite a lot, in fact. Many are working on a 3.4.1
maintenance release. This release will focus on quality (bug fixes)
rather than new features. It will also include new translations, likely
including UK English, Finnish and Slovenian. Work on other translations
is underway, based on volunteer interest, including <a

- <p>In parallel with the 3.4.1 maintenance branch we're also working on
discussing how best to use the Symphony contribution from IBM. This code
has <a
href="http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Symphony_contribution";>many bug
fixes and UI enhancements</a> that could benefit OpenOffice users. Some
of the bug fixes from Symphony have already made it into the 3.4.1
branch. For post-3.4.1, we are weighing two options: a slower,
incremental merge of Symphony enhancemen [...]
- <p>The Apache OpenOffice project welcomes new volunteers on these and other
items. Developers are needed, of course, but also those interested in
testing, technical writing, translation, web design, usability, marketing,
event planning, system admins, etc. This is a large, high visibility
project where we can really make an impact in the world, but also one that is
non-bureaucratic and organizationally flat, where it is easy for newbies to fit
in. It is a great [...]
