<h2>The Apache Software Foundation Statement on Apache OpenOffice</h2>
<p><em>14 October 2011:</em> On 1 June 2011, Oracle Corporation submitted the OpenOffice.org code base to The Apache
Software Foundation. That submission was accepted, and the project is now being developed as a podling in the Apache
Incubator under the ASF's meritocratic process informally dubbed "The Apache Way". OpenOffice.org is now officially part
of the Apache family. The project is known as Apache OpenOffice. Over its 12-year history, the ASF has
welcomed contributions from individuals and organizations alike, but, as a policy, does not solicit code donations. The
OpenOffice.org code base was not pursued by the ASF prior to its acceptance into the Apache Incubator.
