The creation of the TDF and LibreOffice was a movement far above and beyond Go-Oo. It just happened to assimilate that code (and much more).

Large parts of the community were involved setting up the idea - but you don't discuss e.g. trademark issues on a public list, if you want to stand a chance actually obtaining it.
