Oracle gives OpenOffice to Apache - What a Terrible move.

"Oracle announced this AM that it was giving the OpenOffice.org open source project to Apache. The effort has already been endorsed by IBM as well.

"To me this move makes no sense at all.

"If LibreOffice didn't exist, Apache would be a brilliant home for OpenOffice.Reality is that LibreOffice is a vibrant project that has put out the BEST VERSION of OpenOffice ever.

"Reality is that the heart and soul of what used to OpenOffice is now vested in the community of developers that work on LibreOffice."
