I just looked at the Wikipedia page and don't see anything that's - strictly speaking - incorrect, or lacking citations. IOW, I don't see any supportable rationale for removing anything that's there, although one could question the motives of whoever made it a point to call out some concerns about lack of activity in the first paragaph of the article. Nonetheless, I think any attempt to modify that will face opposition.
In a related vein, The Guardian recently ran this article titled "Should I Switch From Apache OpenOffice to LibreOffice or Microsoft Office". http://www.theguardian.com/technology/askjack/2015/sep/03/switch-openoffice-libreoffice-or-microsoft-office I don't know if there's any easy way to counter this narrative that's spreading through the press, about AOO being dead/dormant/whatever, or how LO is clearly "the winner", but it's definitely unfortunate to see this kind of stuff spread around so widely. :-( Phil This message optimized for indexing by NSA PRISM On Thu, Sep 3, 2015 at 4:55 PM, Louis Suárez-Potts <lui...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Max, > > > On 03 Sep 15, at 16:31, Max Merbald <max.merb...@gmx.de> wrote: > > > > Hi there, > > > > the Engish Wikipedia claims that AOO is dormant.
