"So, the OpenOffice.org guys over at Sun are working on
prototyping a new user interface too [.odp]. They have more or less
the same design goals as the Microsoft Office team had, and what do
you know, they come up with prototypes that are about as close to
the ribbon interface as you can get. They're also using tracking
data, similar to how Microsoft tracked user data in an opt-in
fashion. The OOo guys will make this data available to the
community."
