Apache OpenOffice® is the free and open productivity suite from the Apache Software Foundation.

Apache OpenOffice features six personal productivity applications: a word processor (and its web-authoring component), spreadsheet, presentation graphics, drawing, equation editor, and database. OpenOffice is released on Windows, Linux and macOS, with more communities joining, including ports for FreeBSD and OS/2. OpenOffice is localized, supporting over 110 languages worldwide.

OpenOffice.org was donated to the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) on June 1, 2011. As with any code base brought to the ASF, OpenOffice.org underwent incubation before graduating to a top-level project on 2012-10-17.

A lot of good information can be found on the Apache OpenOffice user portal, including a brief history of OpenOffice.org.
