I get that all the office suites probably won't cooperate on one single
office suite. These projects have different goals, different roots,
different audiences.
However, I do wish that all these projects cooperated more, and not just on
ODF, but on things that can benefit all of them, like discussing usability,
accessibility, and interoperability issues, like collaborating on the
aforementioned http://openfontlibrary.org/, http://www.openclipart.org/, or
a potential website for themes and templates, like working together on a
universal set of shortcuts (e.g. both "Ctrl-Shift-Z" and "Ctrl-Y" should
work as Undo in all the open-source office suites) or perhaps on a standard
set of ODF icons :).
