John McCreesh sent a note and blogged this morning to highlight the ongoing success of OpenOffice.org 3.0: it has been downloaded over 50 million times since its release last fall:

Yesterday – Document Freedom Day 2009 – we reached our 50 millionth download of OpenOffice.org from http://download.openoffice.org since 3.0 was released. Celebrate!

Interest in OpenOffice and its exposure to more users continues to increase, building a positive upward spiral of adoption and development of the application suite.
