I'm just a user, not admin, but ... go ahead and download the free version
and install/use it wherever you wish. There are no special use requirements
with the license that comes with the download and none would require payment
of licensing. Limitations would only come in to play if someone wanted to
modify the OO.o code and try to charge money for it, basically. It's a
little more than that, but not a lot.
By coming here you have contacted the right organization. You'll even
find the authors of OO.o code here sometimes. Nothing to worry about; many
companies large and small, even several governments are now using OO.o and
they pay no license fees and have the exact same program.
Depending on the situation, it might be necessary to pay for support if
this newsgroup isn't sufficient for you/their purposes. Except for a
business with a large number of people using OO.o though, I don't even see
the expense of Support from an external party as a requirement. It depends
on the situation, like I said. If you had 50 people say, that had to be
"experts" on it in a week, you might want payign someone to help out with
that, but otherwise ... .

Dear Sir,
I am Mabel, from Lighthouse Services Ltd, and one of my clients is looking
for the openOffice.org 3.2 for business use, and I've got the following
question on that product:
1. For this case, do we need to buy any license on OpenOffice.org? Or we
just download the free software? If we need to buy the license, since my
client is located in Hong Kong, which organization should we contact?
2. Also, do we need to sign any document?
Thank you so much for your all help!
Best Regards,
Mabel Lee
Sales Executive Trainee
