Description bfilmr 2004-11-13 06:25:50 UTC
If the price is not too high, an attempt should be made to get the domain name 
openoffice.com from those who have it now.  A web site at that domain should 
tell people that they should be looking on the openoffice.org site.  Several 
recommendations on google and the web incorrectly give openoffice.com as the 
site to go to.  Some beginners are very easily frustrated and if they do not 
find us right away, may give up.

thing->louis:
With the trademark in place maybe we can dispute and get the openoffice.com domain.

thanks
