Jim -- thanks for reaching out to the OpenOffice.org and LibreOffice communities with your emails. This is important.
Since you've already started with the invites, I wonder if I could recommend to you one more? Another significant party that works in the core OpenOffice source code is RedOffice, a division of Beijing Redflag Chinese 2000 Software Co, Ltd. You may not have never heard of them, but they have a significant user base in China. They've done some incredible work customizing OpenOffice to have it support East Asian typographical and document layout conventions, like better vertical writing support, support for split or "kite" table headers, etc. They regularly attend OpenOffice.org conferences and I consider them an important part of the community. The person to contact there is: Jin You Bing VP of RedOffice email:jinyoub...@redoffice.com In your note, you may need to put give a bit more introductory information about Apache and what this opportunity is. I would not assume that the chatter from the English-language tech press is headline news in Beijing. Let me know if you want a hand with this.
