Preface: About this page

One year ago, Sun open-sourced the code to StarOffice. So, today, 2001 October 13, is our birthday. To honor this day and the community who have made OpenOffice.org such a success, we have put together pages of our accomplishments, features (of the code), stories, testimonials, and more.

The links below represent only a portion of what we can boast of this, our first birthday. And if you have any suggestions for things to add, please send them to webmasters@openoffice.org.

Apache OpenOffice is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software Foundation (ASF), sponsored by the Apache Incubator. Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects. While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF.
