Nooo! unless you want the guy maintaining the go-oo/libreoffice
packages to commit suicide :)

(Imagine having two bears running loose :)).

@misc:
If you have ever tried to rebuild/package the whole OOo, then you wouldn't
put that out so lightly. Ahmad really has a point there. Full OOo takes up to 24
hours building time and space requirements are in the region of 20-35 GB IIRC
on a desktop machine.

So definitely every OfficeSuite should have at least a small team of 
maintainers,
at least thats my opinion, from having helped Ghiuseppe Ghibo ironing out
some packaging/compiling quirks, that was back with OOo 2.2/3/4.
I think it didn't get much slimmer since then.

BTW, i'm all for LibreOffice!

Of course. It's the most logical decision.

But I think Graham means which office suite will be the default one
shipped in the installation media. I like the idea of supporting
LibreOffice. If anything goes wrong, you always can do an urpmi
openoffice. It should be fast if LibreOffice and OpenOffice are,
right now almost the same thing. Packages for both should be almost
the same. Am I right?

Cheers!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the go-openoffice version was the default 
and only version available on Mandriva, and not the officiel version 
from Sun (and now Oracle).
Admittedly, the officiel version corrected bugs more quickly, but the 
go- version seemed to add more enhancements.
I think that a large part of the problem with the officiel version was 
that Sun insisted on having a signed copyright assignment before any 
contribution - even for bug reports.

So my bug reports went to the go- version (or via Mandriva).

version).

 Any decision will depend on timing, ie: Where LibreOffice is when a Mageia
 build is avaialble.

 we can have both packages :)

 Of course. It's the most logical decision.

I was wrong. After visit the LibreOffice web
http://www.documentfoundation.org/download/ I've found that English is
the only language besides this:

This beta release is not intended for production use! Be advised that
the current beta might replace your OpenOffice.org installation.

So, I agree with Michael Scherer's words: any decision will depend on
timing, ie: Where LibreOffice is when a Mageia build is avaialble.

The Mageia build system isn't on service yet anyway so we still have a 
lot of time to see how this new project will be evolving and to focus on 
the issues we will face with our 2010.1 base.

There may be a maintainer for each suite, as there may be a regular for the
Linux kernel and other kernel for Free.

In the latter case, we do a poll;)
