Identity Statement
Mission Statement
To create, as a community, the leading international office suite that will run on all major platforms and provide access to all functionality and data through open-component based APIs and an XML-based file format.
- What does OOo stand for? What general ideas/statements do we want OOo's branding to be guided by?
OpenOffice.org stands for
