[Johannesburg, 30 July 2003] - Local company Sapila will next week launch its first open source office productivity suite, OfficeWare. The company describes it as the first open source office program to be developed by a local firm.
“The program is based on open source code from the Sun Microsystems' Star Office Suite,” says Sapila MD Mark Mackay. “But we have developed the code further and will also launch an open source Web site that will have all of OfficeWare's source code.”
