Among all the news and excitement surrounding the release of StarOffice 6.0 beta and OpenOffice.org build 638c, one of the things that seems to have gone unnoticed is that OpenOffice.org celebrated it's first anniversary of being Open Sourced (the code was released on Oct 13 2001).

The OpenOffice.org anniversary page is at http://www.openoffice.org/about_us/birthday.html and includes link to the latest build (638c), an overview of product achievements and activities in the first year, user testimonials and more.
