<h1 align=center>Welcome To The OpenOffice.org IRIX Porting Site</h1>
Porting of OpenOffice.org to IRIX officially begun in September 2001. The
initial work involved testing a variety of compilers and tools to determine the
best way OpenOffice.org was to be built for IRIX. (For a list of tools,
compilers, and libraries used to build OOo on IRIX, refer to the
<a href="build_inst/index.html">build instructions</a> page.
<p>
