Good move, IBM

Desktop Random

I just want to take a second to also throw my support behind IBM for their announcement of involvement in OpenOffice.org. OpenOffice.org is extremely important for the free software desktop to succeed, and IBM are making an excellent decision here. I look forward to seeing their contributions.

I would now like to see some improvements go into how their community is run. I think there are some tricks they are missing right now to get more developers involved and further the development rate of OpenOffice.org.

    “their” in the second paragraph refers to the IBM community, Sun community, or the OOo community?

    So is IBM going to help promote the usage of OpenOffice.org?
