Is this legal? Doesn't it violate OO's open source license? This same
seller is selling $5.99 downloads of a Windows Mobile 6 ROM for Treo
Smartphones, which is definitely NOT legal.

Selling OpenOffice.org on CD is legal. There are many Community
Distributors who are only charging for the time and materials for
making and shipping that CD.
Now if someone charged for the privilege to download
OpenOffice.org, then that would be against the Open Source
license and against the OpenOffice.org rules.
