Hi Richard, Apache OpenOffice is open source software, published under the Apache License 2.0. You can read the complete license here: http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.html and a plain-English summary of what it means here: http://www.apache.org/foundation/license-faq.html#WhatDoesItMEAN As Ian mentioned, we're always glad to hear the details of successful adoptions of OpenOffice, so we can use them for promoting our non-profit work, but this is not required.
