on this thread. If you do a search on facebook for pages about "Apache
OpenOffice", this page is not immediately visible, at least I could only
see a link to a generic page automatically generated by wikipedia. After
clicking the link in this thread I found this mysterious "official" page
which I was then able to "like".

It is also confusing that when searching for "Apache OpenOffice" one of the
main results is a user group by the name "Apache OpenOffice" which claims
to be the "official page" for Apache OpenOffice:
https://www.facebook.com/groups/338330086179568/
"This is the official Facebook page for the Apache OpenOffice project. Here
you can find information about the OpenOffice development status and other
important information." I don't think a "group" should be called an
"official page", a group is usually a place for discussion among users
where anyone can write pretty much anything. A facebook group doesn't
usually officialy represent anything.
