- ccozan 13y agoYes, but you can download and install at minimal cost any old version of Libre/Openoffice and read your Staroffice documents. You are not quite left stranded. And also I assume the code to read that format still resides in a repository, cann be pulled and reused at will. Not the same happens with proprietary software.
