Right on the deadline to propose new features for Fedora 19 (it wasn't planned) I submitted Apache OpenOffice as a proposed new feature:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/ApacheOpenOffice

You can see this as a first step in getting back into the major Linux distributions. Timing aside, Fedora is a very good choice for a number of reasons.

Let's wait and see; Fedora 19 is nicknamed "Schroedinger's cat" after all. The Fedora 19 release schedule, as an exception to the common Fedora conventions, will not be time-based but feature-based: features accepted by the Fedora Board will be considered before drafting the schedule. Anyway, optimally it would allow to package OpenOffice 4.0 (and there would be work to do on the OpenOffice and the Fedora side to get OpenOffice properly packaged).

Regards,
  Andrea.
