OpenOffice.org and Alfresco can be used together for powerful Enterprise Content Management. Erwin Tenhumberg points out a handy new OpenOffice Extension that provides deeper integration between the two applications called the “OpenOffice.org Plugin for Alfresco.”

While rereading parts of Alfresco’s site, I found the latest release of “Alfresco’s Open Source Barometer Survey.” Of particular interest is their findings for office suites (among an admittedly self-selected sample of users): “When it comes to content it comes from Microsoft Office. However, users in Germany and France are twice as likely to use OpenOffice than in the US or UK. Microsoft Office 66%, OpenOffice 24%.”

This is the highest usage share I’ve yet seen for OOo, but it keeps growing everywhere and every time I look.
