Hi Simos,
yes, you are right!
But, OpenOffice.org is past.
The projects name now is Apache OpenOffice.
With the "abbreviation" OpenOffice I refer to the former
OpenOffice.org and
to Apache OpenOffice.
I hope you will accept this abbreviation.
If you are doing academic work, you should use the proper names.
The reason that 'OpenOffice' was not selected ten years ago was
because some other company in Europe had already registered the name
'OpenOffice'.
Not entirely correct.
It was an american enterprise that has grabed the rights for this name.
OpenOffice.org is now in the hands of Oracle and that will not spit it
out. ;-(

Hi all,
my name is Veit.
I had studied Free Software at Free Technology Academy
(ftacademy.org)
and
Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC.edu).
Now, after I had finished all my courses, I will write my Master
Thesis.
This will be a case study about the office suites OpenOffice and
LibreOffice.
There used to be a project 'OpenOffice.org' which is now defunct.
Out of that project, we now have 'LibreOffice' and 'Apache
OpenOffice', and possibly others.
Sadly, www.openoffice.org does not reflect this situation.
Sorry for hijacking.
Simos
