That was just a bogus groklaw report. We simply patch OO like every

we have a good sized team working on OO. We send it all upstream
however and most of it eventually ends up in the base OO.


A couple questions:

1)the additional features include VBA support and also I think
fonts/font support of some kind --- is that correct? I've heard people
say that things like screen fonts, icons, and just general fit and
finish have been improved in the "novell OO" ...

The VBA was a big thing, but even that is beginning to merge upstream,
Noel Powers on our side has several related child work spaces going.
