I just thought about what you said about charging for it. With that in mind, I just thought that I probally will only charge just a little bit over the media price. With the media price in mind, I figure i'll distribute it with almost no profit. I shouldnt bother charging that much anyway, because it can be downloaded for free. But, If I decide to just modify the source code, then I will obviosly charge more. I think that roughly $9.99 is a nice price for it, and that should cover all of the media prices. I will join the project around next week, because I am not sure if I need to pay taxes for doing this in my state (Virginia, USA). I think this is some wonderfull software too :P

Thanks once again,
  Joe

Hello Joe,

Yes, you are allowed to charge for the software, and make a proffit. You can make this into a side business. We would appreciate it if you charged a "reasonable" price for the software, but even that is not required.

Please consider joining this project:

If you join, we will also list you on our distributor's page:

Cheers,

Dear openoffice.org,

I was wondering if I can charge money if someone wants to get it, and I am distributing. Is it allowed for me to make profit that way? I mean, all of those CD-R's would cost alot of money eventually. So, can I charge money for it? Or, will I just have to charge $10 for 'Shipping and handling' :-X

Thanks,
 Joe
