  4. LibreOffice Writer document is locked/read only. How can I edit this document?

    The Document Foundation announces LibreOffice 3.5

    You didn't offend me. I found your post to be a bit confusing, so I tried to clarify it. Oracle bought Sun Microsystems and then virtually ignored OpenOffice. People tried to submit bug fixes and improvements, and nothing happened to them. Enough developers got so pissed off about it that they forked the code and formed The Document Foundation. LibreOffice was born.

    OpenOffice and LibreOffice are similar in many ways, but they are no longer the same product. They share a code base, but they are already diverging. Like you said, the best stuff is going into LibreOffice. OpenOffice isn't even worth considering anymore.
