Your vision point is correct, Michael, and more. How in Debian, that is the base of many distros, removed the OOo based in two points: 1) doubt about the future of OOo; 2) a minimal team to maintain the package; was more easy to migrate to LibO. Today, only René, a Debian Developer, maintains the package there. Some time ago, i started the study about the packaging process, but today i stopped it. I think that if we show a stable package and adjust the build process to Debian, i believe that we can return to it, as more one package/project, giving for all derivated distros the AOOo again.
