Don't Expect an OpenOffice/LibreOffice Merger

Since Oracle has decided to give OpenOffice back to the community, a lot of people wondered if there would be some sort of re-unification with the ex-Oracle and the Document Foundation run by a lot of the original involved folks. The latter has released a statement saying, "the development of TDF community and LibreOffice is going forward as planned, and we are always willing to include new members and partners. We will provide as many information as we can with the progress of the situation. We are currently making every possible effort to offer a smooth transition to the project."

Re:What?

Because, really ... "honestly mom, you should change to Libre Office, that Open Office from 2 years ago is so passe" ... I just don't see that helping the cause of coming up with a free alternative. I'm not really willing to go there for myself even.

And all this time, I have been just installing the software and renaming the icons Word, Excel, and so on. I didn't realize I was supposed to tell them the name of the programs as well as they weren't using the Microsoft versions.

Both suck. Do not want.

Thank you for taking the time to inform us of your indifference. Would you care to make a list of other subjects you are not interested in? Maybe provide an XML feed, so I can have it as a widget on my phone?

Let me make a few suggestions to get the ball rolling:

The fall of the roman empire was gay!
Aroma therapy sucks balls.
I don't give a fuck about Alexander Hamilton.

On second thought, I think I'll make my own feed.
