Properly called OpenOffice.org because of a trademark dispute, OpenOffice is an community-based attempt to create an office applications suite set of computer applications based on the open sourced code from an older version of StarOffice by Sun Microsystems.

Newer releases of StarOffice are based on the OpenOffice.org codebase (similir in a way to the relationship between Netscape Navigator and Mozilla). Although StarOffice is itself a commercial product OpenOffice.org itself will always remains free software.
