Please read http://about.openoffice.org/index.html for information about the historical backgrounds,
So you are saying that they already owned the source and then released it
for opensource development?  Even so, they could not claim ownership of code
developed by individuals who were not compensated.  They may own the
original source but cannot claim ownership of the newer code unless they
compensate for the work.
Please see http://www.openoffice.org/dev_docs/guidelines.html for the joint copyright assignment, also http://www.openoffice.org/FAQs/faq-licensing.html might answer some of your questions,
