The Apache Software Foundation offers a suite of office productivity software named Apache Open Office. Based on the download page, you would never guess the last major release of the software was made available in 2014. With that bit of release history in mind, would it be fair to consider Apache Open Office as an un-maintained project? In this blog post, I share a quick recap of the history behind Apache Open Office, and my opinion on why The Apache Software Foundation’s actions may be masking the answer to this question.

    Great history!

    I dunno, might be more fair to say that Open Office is in maint mode. A scan of 2023, looks like a light touch here and there…maybe there is some kind of IDE auto-format or an auto-delinter? Nothing wrong with that imo, pretty std practice.
