The issue of the licensing of this office suite is not even mentioned, like it is wholly irrelevant. It might be for the reviewer - but not for me.
This suite is proprietary, wholly non-free and no matter how "good" some of its technical aspects might or might not be - I want nothing to do with it.
I run solely free software, almost all of it under GPL, and I encourage everybody to do the same. By giving money to non-free software developers we are only strengthening the corporate noose around our necks!
[besides, a MS-Office look-alike written in Java - disgusting!]
