Well though there are great apps amongst the Amiga for this area, OpenOffice.org's initiative is to offer a cross platform open standard to all major OSes!  We could use this really, for one thing it is based on XML file format standards, which is quickly becoming the standard and MS Office 11 will be supporting XML as well!

True, Gobe Productive is a great application, I should know, I own a copy.  It's good to see they're going to open source it, but I would have opted for the MIT over GPL licensing, but it's their call!  Does anyone know where to get ahold of these guys to get the source once it is approved?
