Re: OpenOffice, I'm curious to know what will happen to it now that it's
been bought by Oracle. I've heard that it's going to be forked. Anybody
knows about that?
See:
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/09/28/openoffice_independence_from_oracle/
"Open sourcers have seized control of the OpenOffice project and product
and declared their independence from database giant Oracle.
The OpenOffice.org Project has unveiled a major restructuring that
separates itself from Oracle and that takes responsibility for
OpenOffice away from a single company.
Oracle had been OpenOffice's principal contributor - a role it inherited
thanks to its acquisition of the well meaning but slow-witted Sun
Microsystems earlier this year."
