With the acquisition of Sun Microsystems by Oracle now being closed we'll see some immediate changes to our site and product. This reflects the fact that Oracle replaces Sun in its role as part of the OpenOffice.org project. [...]
Let me take this opportunity to express some thoughts and feelings to the Sun team working on OpenOffice.org. And I hope and trust that, in doing so, I reflect the opinion of the vast majority of the members of our community.
Some words of thanks are in its place, in my opinion, although essentially we continue to work with the same people.
In the first place for all the good work done on the product and the project in the past nearly ten years. In moments of joy and excitement and also in times of problems and sadness.
Further, I feel thankful for you all continuing the work in the long period of uncertainty that has just been closed. I know many of us were hopeful and confident, but still, one first has to see it really. I'm glad that now this period is closed, finished.
People knowing me, will recognize that I'm not shy to raise my voice when (IMO) something is wrong, sub-optimal, and has room for improvement. Either be it in the software, either in how we work together. And I hope that I may be able to continue cooperating in this spirit for a long time to come. Enjoying the so often positive attitude of the team, and well meant steps to an even brighter future.
I am really exited about OpenOffice.org being part of Oracle and trust that this new situation will give the project great opportunities.
That all in the project may enjoy.
