projects including: OpenJDK (GPL Java
My take on the Java situation is:
Oracle stopped developing OpenOffice when they found out it was freeware.
About the time I found out this I seem to remember reading an article that
Oracle had gone through the courts because they wanted to charge for the
use of Java. They lost, but were pr

Scooter,
Keep in mind that unless you are using Base or the Accessibility
features, you don't need Java to run OpenOffice (AOO) or LibreOffice (LO).
I am not sure what TB needs Java for. I know some websites use it,
since there are TB configuration options to disable certain Java
