Please add the following to the FAQ:

Q: How should I refer to OpenOffice.org in my documents?

A: If you need to use the term "OpenOffice.org" in documents or papers or any
formal communication(not including email), we suggest you to follow the
following conventions:

1. Always use OpenOffice.org as an adjective.
2. When using the phrase "OpenOffice.org" when speaking about something
specific, we suggest you use one of the following forms:

a. For the WebSite: "The OpenOffice.org Web Site", or "The OpenOffice.org
Community"
b. For the binary: "The OpenOffice.org Application"
c. For the binary in a standard context: "The OpenOffice.org reference
implementation."
d. For the code: "The OpenOffice.org source code" or "The OpenOffice.org code"

Now for the obvious question: Why?

The reason is: Someone else owns the phrase "OpenOffice", and I want to make
sure we do not get into trouble.
