He is being careful, in case OTHER SOFTWARE already on their computers has BOOBY-TRAPS in ITS license or EULA. OO is fine no matter what else you are running, But if your support contract with XYZ Consulting forbids installing anything not on their approved list you may be SOL.

As I mentioned in another note, anyone whose job involves obtaining software for a company should know about such restrictions.  Any employee who wants to install software on their own computer should be aware of the company policy, assuming they even have sufficient permissions to install software.  There's absolutely no reason for Jonathan to keep on posting those notices, as this matter is entirely beyond the scope of this list.  If someone wants to install software, it's their responsibility to determine whether they're allowed to or not.  And this applies to any software, not just OpenOffice.
