Links to OOo / Open Source Related Websites
We've collected together all the best Web Sites and Internet Resources there are for users to find help, and listed them on this page.
If you have or know of a site that you feel should be on this page, suggest it to us and we'll ask the site's author for permission to put a link to their site here.
We are aware that there are many more sites out there that reference OpenOffice.org, but unfortunately they have a tendency to become over-complicated for the average user - please bear this in mind when recommending a site :) If there's enough popular demand, a site we haven't considered may be listed.
We are not responsible for the
content of any of these linked sites.
