According to, http://lwn.net, Linux Weekly News:
No more free StarOffice downloads. Linux users have long been accustomed to being able to download the StarOffice suite for free. It is one of the best deals out there: a complex, highly functional office suite which can be had for the price of a download. Seemingly, the deal was a little too good; the word has now slipped out that StarOffice 6.0 will be a proprietary product. At least for some operating systems; the Solaris version will remain free (of charge). There's always OpenOffice... in the Contribs, I think. >From: "William R.
