Oracle To Give OpenOffice.org To Apache Incubator

Julie188 writes "Oracle has finally officially spilled the beans: It's proposing OpenOffice.org as an Apache Incubator project — and not handing it to The Document Foundation. Oracle had announced earlier this year that it would be passing the torch to the community, but failed to provide any specifics about the ultimate destination. The Document Foundation is the organization behind the OpenOffice fork, LibreOffice."

Re:Good, now make two versions

Good, now make two versions, one International version and one US version.

The international version should be the gold version, with the US version a crippled version which honors all the software patent follies going on in the US.

The rest of the world should just ignore their sissy talk.

Let us hope that Apache don't respect US software patents outside the US.

OK as long as the US users can d/l the gold version.

But ... but ... then your Web Browser would be a circumvention device!

That could NEVER be allowed to happen!
