"The OpenOffice.org open source office suite is a key piece of technology that Oracle acquired as part of its purchase of Sun Microsystems. Open Office is also an area of controversy for Oracle with a fork called LibreOffice already in progress.

"Michael Bemmer, vice president of Oracle Office told InternetNews.com that Oracle Open Office 3.3 introduces a number of improvements for end users. Bemmer noted that that the 3.3 release includes enhanced usability for presentation editing and improved slide handling. Additionally the 3.3 release has integration with Oracle Business Intelligence, Oracle E-Business Suite and Oracle Universal Content Management solutions as well as overall improvements in performance, stability and compatibility."
