Dear folks,
Upon reading some alerts, I have found out that OpenOffice is being forked and now it will be LibreOffice. It has the backing of Novel, Red Hat, ..., etc. This had to be done because of Oracle's recent treatment of OpenSolaris, and the possibility of it doing something similar here?

We would have still had gnumeric, and abiword, koffice and other software, but just in case Oracle changes it's mind?
Now, Fedora 14 will continue to ship with OpenOffice version, will next version of Fedora switch to LibreOffice? Thanks!
Regards,
Antonio
