I cant remember who or where I saw this, but there are some concerns that since Oracle has taken over Sun that Open Office will not remain Open for much longer.

A number of the folks moved over to Libre Office and are developing it instead.

Very similar projects and programs.

Are you sure about that, Stewart? I just went to the site <http://www.openoffice.org/> and there was no mention of that. In fact, they just announced an update.

LibreOffice <http://www.documentfoundation.org/> does appear to be an effort at an evolution of OpenOffice, but it seems to come from a different organization not related to Oracle (formerly Sun).

Open Office is no longer being updated or has changed.

Libre Office is its successor.
