Software-update: Apache OpenOffice 4.1.16

Versie 4.1.16 van OpenOffice is uitgekomen. Dit opensource-officepakket is in 1984 begonnen als StarOffice. In 1999 is het in handen van Sun Microsystems gekomen en vervolgens is het in 2010 bij Oracle terechtgekomen. Nadat een groot aantal ontwikkelaars naar LibreOffice waren overgestapt uit onvrede over hoe Oracle dit project aanstuurde, is de broncode uiteindelijk aan de Apache Software Foundation gedoneerd. OpenOffice wordt geleverd met een tekstverwerker (Writer), een spreadsheetprogramma (Calc), een presentatieprogramma (Impress), een tekenprogramma (Draw), een databaseprogramma (Base) en een programma om wetenschappelijke notaties te maken (Formula). De changelog voor deze uitgave ziet er als volgt uit:
