+Apache OpenOffice (AOO)
+=======================
+
+ The Apache OpenOffice project provides a full featured office productivity
suite
+ based on open standards. It is the continuation of the OpenOffice.org
project.
+
+ For detailed information about Apache OpenOffice please visit
+ https://openoffice.apache.org/
+
+ Apache OpenOffice is a very large project with many components and mainly
+ implemented in C++ but also in Java, Perl, Python and other languages.
+
+ Currently supported platforms include:
+
+ Microsoft Windows
+ macOS (OS X)
+ Linux variants
+ FreeBSD
+ OS/2
+
+ OpenOffice is used by millions of users worldwide and with more than 275
million
+ downloads it is one of the most successful open source projects.
+
+Getting the latest sources via Subversion
+=========================================
+
+ You can always checkout the latest source via subversion using the
following
+ command:
+
+ git clone https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf/openoffice.git aoo
+
+ For further information visit https://openoffice.apache.org/source.html
+
+Building Apache OpenOffice
+===========================
+
+ Apache OpenOffice is a big project and depends on several other external
libraries.
+ The list of prerequisites varies for the different platforms.
+
+ A comprehensive and complete building guide can be found in the project
wiki under
+
+ https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO
+
+ With having all prerequisites in place you can simply run
+
+ cd aoo/main
+ autoconf
+ ./configure <configure_switches>
+ ./bootstrap
+ source *.set.sh
+ cd instsetoo_native
+ build --all
+
+ Note that building OpenOffice can take several hours.
+
+ The default build will produce a setup version (e.g. setup program on
Windows, dmg on macOS,
+ rpm and deb packages on Linux) and an archived version. The output can be
found in the
+ <output> directory in instsetoo_native/<output_dir>/Apache_OpenOffice/...
