Free Microsoft Office Alternative OpenOffice.org 2.0 Suite Launches
Quote:The open source alternative to Microsoft Office got new legs recently as governments argue that documents should be based on open-source formats.

OpenOffice.org 2.0, which has been in development for more than two years and recently delayed by some last-minute bugs, can now be downloaded from the Web in versions for Windows, Linux, and Solaris. A native Mac OS X edition is still being ported.

Open Office: If this suite's a success, why is it so buggy?
A different perspective on the Open Office Suite:

Quote:If this suite's a success, why is it so buggy?

The OpenOffice project vividly illustrates the limitations of open source as a way of producing software

Of all the myths that have grown up around open source software, perhaps the most pervasive is Eric Raymond's aphorism that "Many eyes make bugs shallow", suggesting that if lots of people can view a program's source code, they will find and fix its errors more quickly than commercial products whose code is jealously guarded. The only problem with this is that it's not true - certainly not in one of the flagship projects of open source, OpenOffice.
