I don't see the reasioning behind spliting the scarce resources any further.

I can simply invert the question: why doesn't TDF simply contribute to Apache 
OpenOffice.org?

There is not a simple answer: it's a long story of copyleft.

In the future, I'm sure Apache, and TDF will find a way to collaborate actively.

Hi,

 do you understand why there isn't a simple answer?

 The same concepts are expressed in similar way inside TDF's mailing lists.
 With the same good reasons.

Sure, guess my first email was kind of naive.

 But I'm sure at the end the reason and the common good will prevail on
 egocentric positions.

Hopefully :)
In the meantime thanks for working on a free office suite.

2011/12/27 Rob Weir robw...@apache.org:
 The Apache OpenOffice Project Management Committee is pleased to
 announce the availability of our new Announcement mailing list.  This
 is a low-volume list which will be used to announce the availability
 of OpenOffice betas and releases, to issue security bulletins, and to
 report similar relevant information.  This is not a discussion list.
 It will be used only for authoritative announcements regarding Apache
 OpenOffice.

 We encourage all OpenOffice users and other interested parties to
 subscribe to this list by following these steps:

 1) Send an email to:   ooo-announce-subscr...@incubator.apache.org

 2) Wait a few minutes and then check your inbox for a confirmation email.

 3) Respond to the confirmation email

 (If you ever want to unsubscribe, send an email to:
 ooo-announce-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org and respond to the
 confirmation email.)

 More information on this list, and other Apache OpenOffice project
 lists can be found here:

 http://incubator.apache.org/openofficeorg/mailing-lists.html

 Regards,

 -Rob

Be sure EducOOo never will (or will be without me), and the day  
Apache project will do that, I'll have no reason to continue to  
contribute.



Just a reminder:

TDF and LibreOffice have been decided in the background, without  
public discussion, without even inform the OpenOffice.org project  
leads, by people who autoproclamed themselves as founding members.


Exactly the opposite of what should be a community project.

Eric Bachard
