Re: [libreoffice-users] AOO for Android - not worth the download

Hi :)
My boss still uses the term "Office" meaning MSO and i just give him a baffled look and pause and 
then say "do you mean the Microsoft one?".  When i say "Office" i mean LO so i have started saying 
MSO".  So, i think i am going to keep on using "AOO" but also mention Apache later in the same 
paragraph and just spell it out when i mean the other one.  
Regards from 
Tom :)
