Anyone know someone at openoffice? I'd like to offer Ohloh's download service for them - their current bandwidth is horrible (tried to download - was getting 4.9kb/sec). jason — about 1 month ago tags: OpenOffice.org

Nice office suite

    by cane

OpenOffice is a very handy tool for my needs. Most of the time I use the Writer and the Calc components.
Maybe something is still counterintuitive or insufficiently autometed, and the rendering is slightly slow, but the core is steady.
One thing I'm dissatisfied with is that there are no official x86-64 builds. This is especially frustrating with x86-64 Linux distros.

Nice but still a long way to go

    by Dustin Hamilton

It's very nice to be open source and following the standards but still to become the best you have to take care of your speed,efficiency,deliverability,usability etc.I feel this software is slower than its much hyped non-standards counterpart.This lag in speed makes people still prefer that highly riced beast rather than to this bird.
Its usability is also not so good in comparison.It should take care on usability.Functionality wise I prefer this the best.
