I have no idea, but it's Openoffice for you. .org because it is part of the actual name - originally it was to be called just OpenOffice, but after using that name for a bit, it was found that it was already in use for something else. Well, the domain name was there, and suffiently different in trademark terms, and it carries with it the not-for-profit nature of free software - that ended up being accepted. -- Mark L.
