Victories for ODF, especially in Denmark; other developments that bring about better ODF support, still facing the usual FUD from Redmond

If you’ve been frustrated with what you can do with OpenOffice.org, then you’re probably looking for more. And that’s what Go-oo can help you with.

And that’s a good question that was debated, and settled, during the wonderful OOoCon 2009 that took place in Orvieto .

OpenOffice.org has risen to quite a place of prominence among office workers, home users, students, and just about every category in between. Why?

One of OpenOffice.org's greatest strengths is its emphasis on styles.

Yet even those who are used to styles in Writer tend to overlook the styles used in other applications. That is especially true of graphic styles.
