    From Wikipedia:

    “Oracle OpenOffice” is a discontinued office productivity suite. Originally acquired by Oracle through their purchase of Sun Microsystems in 2009, the project was officially discontinued in 2011 when Oracle laid off the development team and donated the code to the Apache Software Foundation.

    The Fork to LibreOffice: In 2010, the majority of the original volunteer developers left Oracle to form The Document Foundation, creating a fork named LibreOffice. LibreOffice has since become the standard, actively maintained open-source office suite.
