OO is dead? Please tell me.

Post by jeehyun »

I heard IBM developers ditch OO and there is just a few developers now.
Some says OO is dead. For a long time, there is no update.
I cannot believe that.
OO is ok?
DO leaders find new way to survive? (I don't hate commercial odf suite because I love ODF itself.)
Please tell me.
:( :( :(
