Haha, imagine it Apache would merge LibreOffice back to OpenOffice, and developers also switched. Would be the circle of the decade. On a different note, this industry used to have so much more fun - just solving puzzles to herd bits - before it was flooded by politics. | ||||||||||||||

It seems that way, but it's been flooded with politics for all my adult life. Steve Jackson Games, the Clipper Chip, software patent shenanigans, the public domain stolen from 1976 to 2019, endless thinly-disguised censorship and control efforts - in meatspace, nothing is new. | ||||||||||||||
