Illicit copies of Office 2003 leaked out onto the Internet Relay Chat (IRC) early Thursday, and on the same day, Microsoft said it would make the new office suite available to some licensing customers. Corporations and organizations which bought into Microsoft's maintenance program, Software Assurance, as well as subscribers to its Microsoft Developer Network, will be able to download Office 2003 and the OneNote stand-alone application starting Monday, Sept. 15, Microsoft said.
