I think this is mostly pulled out of other mailing list context, where they represent actual internal discussion and using it out of that context, it screams on FUD. Milions and milions of Apache Open Office downloads through the months and years and every day today, spell different story, of well behaved and mature product. Similar attacks have already been coming from LibreOffice fanboy base. Other then that, Oracle did the right thing with Apache Open Office. _______________________________________________ oi-dev mailing list [email protected] https://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/oi-dev
