     Dear Lars Aronsson,


     please be careful in claiming yourself as the spokesperson for Sweden.


     There are other folks around in this nation having other opinions.


     Best of regards,
     Kent �berg

The ".org" part of the name always felt awkward, but perhaps there
was some good reason? Has this been documented? Why did Sun
call it OpenOffice.org rather than just OpenOffice?

Looking into the project now from the Swedish horizon, it doesn't
matter much what you call this branch, since everybody from the
developer community seems to be over at LibreOffice. If you hope
to merge the two branches, both communities should have a say on
the name.
