To Whom It May Concern: I've been looking for an alternative to the (costly) Microsoft Office Suite of products and I'm very impressed by the Apache Software Foundation's vision and range of products. I'm trying also to be a conscientious user by carefully reading your software licenses and FAQs before I download. Perhaps this is an obvious question (certainly I can infer the answer from your organization's manifestos), but I haven't found it stated explicitly anywhere on your websites: does Open Office make any claims to the copyrights of a work created with it? That is to say, if I wrote a screenplay using Writer, do I retain full copyrights?
I've already read the Apache License 2.0 document, the license statement for Open Office, as well as the FAQs on both pages and I understand the rights pertaining to use of the software, but I don't see any mention of copyrights for works created with it. Usually (as with Google Docs, for example) there is a page listing Terms and Conditions that answers these questions. Can you please direct me to that page? And may I suggest adding it to the Open Office FAQs or License statement? Thanks for your time, *Jasmine Kanter* 519.702.5666 | jasminekan...@gmail.com
