About OpenOffice.org

OpenOffice.org has been derived from StarOffice, an office suite produced by Star Division, a small company based in Hamburg, Germany. When Sun Microsystems, Inc. bought the company in ..., the source code was released as open-source and a developer community began its work to build the most viable competitor to the almost complete monopoly that Microsoft Office enjoys in this product category.

OpenOffice.org was so strong a product that it could present its standard XML based document format as a basis for standardization. OASIS an industry standard consortium with many prominent members, shaped the original format and produced the Open Document Format for Office Applications (OpenDocument) 1.0

Release 2.0 of OpenOffice.org fully supports OpenDocument Format 1.0 and as its standard format. However, many other office productivity suites have adopted this format, such as KOffice, Google Documents, AbiWord, IBM s and various others. OpenOffice.org 2.0 was released in 2005.
