Editor's Notes

  • #4 I mean a lot Instead of developing a new software from scratch Ease of development/improvement instead of accepting what you have Like IE6, let's bring a new player
  • #9 This will be the first open source Java Office suite
  • #10 There is a point I'd like to come back to. Try to image how great an office suite could be if 90,000 developers would work on it.
  • #11 No need to wait for a patch Android, Spring framework
