This page describes a pilot research aimed to find the user's perception of office software suite in general and OpenOffice.org in particular. The subject of survey is the regular users without high level of the interest in IT. E.g. what does a user mean by words "I've used OpenOffice for a period of time, but then I've installed normal office suite". What is the "normality" here, etc.

The field for research is the biggest (and accessible by researchers) organization in Pskov region (North-West of Russia) what uses OpenOffice is Regional Administration (RA). There are 800 workstations, third of them are with OOo.

There are 2 stages of the survey. The first one is aimed to get the general picture how OpenOffice is used in RA. The first stage is conducted using interviewing of experts.

The second stage is planed as quantitative questionnaire survey of RA's employees.
