Apache OpenOffice
Apache OpenOffice 3.4 has been released. A port is available at /usr/ports/editors/openoffice-3/ !
OpenOffice is now an Apache incubator Project. IBM has announced it will be folding it's complete Lotus Symphony Suite into the Apache effort and will be available in release 4.0.
Hunspell and Friends
All possible dictionaries, thesaurus and hyphenation are being added to the ports tree to allow LibreOffice, OpenOffice and every potential hunspell aware application to share the same resources.
