Open Source wants StarOffice for schools
04.06.2002
By RICHARD WOOD

The newly formed New Zealand Open Source Society is pitching to get Sun 
Microsystems' StarOffice and its open source equivalent OpenOffice into 
schools.

The society believes StarOffice would be a step towards schools using the 
open source Linux operating system. Open Source software is free to use, 
modify and distribute.
