The Apache Software Foundation offers a suite of office productivity software named Apache Open Office. Based on the download page, you would never guess the last major release of the software was made available in 2014.
With that bit of release history in mind, would it be fair to consider Apache Open Office as an un-maintained project? In this blog post, I share a quick recap of the history behind Apache Open Office, and my opinion on why The Apache Software Foundation’s actions may be masking the answer to this question.
Because that’s the only thing relevant to the article in my opinion. This all feels like making mountains out of mole hills. There’s a project that is mostly dead but still receiving some work every now and then by a very small group of people and we want to what, get Apache to shelf it?
