Yep - the list has received emails about this in the past. OpenOffice
is released under a license that makes it perfectly legal to sell
copies of it. Normally the price should reflect the media that is
comes on (eg, CDROM) but sometimes it does not. In any event they are
not doing anything illegal.

www.openoffice.com is a little bit more of a problem, as it is offering "free Microsoft Office" among other things. Quite a few things on the sight look suspicious, to the point that it might be worth OOo putting up a disclaimer, so that when they disappear nobody comes after the good guys. I think they goes way beyond simply trying to sell an otherwise free product. It looks far less honest than any of the "dupe" sights I've seen so far.
