Happy 3rd Birthday To OpenOffice.org

Milo Fungus writes "OpenOffice.org is three years old today. The birthday page links to interviews and information about OpenOffice.org's push to schools, which is led by Ian Lynch of the Marketing Project. As a happy and satisfied user, I say 'Happy Birthday' with vigor and gusto." Gift idea: give a copy of OpenOffice.org to your boss tomorrow.

    When poster Milo Fungus wrote, "As a happy and satisfied user, I say 'Happy Birthday' with vigor and gusto," he probably wasn't aware that Happy Birthday (the song) is NOT in the public domain. Yes, Milo, if you sang it in pulic, you owe the public performance rights!
    This seems like the perfect urban legend, but it's not. Check out the Snopes explanation for the rest of the st.... Oops, don't want Paul Harvey suing me.

    This is Slashdot, right? I'm sorry, I have to ask because you mentioned the need for CONTENT. This is a 'Happy Birthday' article for Chrissakes you fucking anonymous troll.

    Tell me oh great one, just what kind of post were you expecting - I mean other than the shit you spew you fucking waste. Go ahead and reply with a REAL account next time and we'll 'talk'; otherwise have nice big cup of STFU.

    Boooo - ring. I enjoy good trolling like the next slashdotter, but yours was just flaccid and stale. Visit FC and learn some trolling basics, and only then come back, kiddo.
