<h2>OpenOffice.org Is Four</h2>
<p>2004-10-13</p>
<p>Today we are four. On 13 October 2000 Sun Microsystems donated the source to StarOffice to the open-source community. Sun has continued to sponsor the project, which <a href="http://www.collab.net/"> CollabNet</a> hosts and manages. Our celebrations started early, in September, with the Second OOoCon, in Berlin. The papers presented there highlight the activity and promise of the project and the code. </p>
