Volunteers, not Amateurs
------------------------
_8 January 2013:_ Apache OpenOffice is developed 100% by volunteers. Apache does not pay for developers, for translators, for QA, for marketing, for UI, for support, etc. Of course, we're happy to accept [donations to the Apache Software Foundation](https://www.apache.org/foundation/contributing.html), to keep our servers runnings and for similar overhead expenses. But our products are developed entirely by volunteers.
Some users are initially worried by this statement:
**How can software for free, developed by volunteers, be any good?
