[$] A discordant symphony Last May, IBM
announced the completion of
its long-awaited
contribution of the source code for its "Symphony" OpenOffice.org fork to
the Apache Software Foundation. More than six months later, there is no
freely-licensed version of Symphony available, and some observers, at
least, see no evident signs that any such release is in the works. A look
at the situation reveals gears that grind slowly indeed, leading to tension
that is not helped by some
unfortunate bad feelings between rival development projects.
