LibreOffice was a fork of and is built on the original code base. Most outside volunteers - including the contributors to Go-oo, who contributed a set of enhancements used by many Linux distributions - left the project and formed LibreOffice. They renamed the proprietary StarOffice office suite to “Oracle Open Office,” as if they wanted to cause confusion, and then discontinued it. In 2011, Sun Microsystems was acquired by Oracle.
