IBM to lift lid on its OpenOffice plans next week
,----[ Quote ]
| It’s not in the plan for OpenOffice 3.0 or future versions of the open source
| desktop, said John McCreesh, Marketing Project Lead of OpenOffice.org, in an
| e-mail exchange.
|
| “There’s nothing about that in the IBM statement,” McCreesh said, referring
| to the possibility of contributing Notes colaboartion code to the open source
| projects. “It’s not in the roadmap. It’s much more likely that we would do
| co-operative work with one or more open-source email client projects to
| integrate OpenOffice.org more closely with their software.”
