I believe there is no reason to have LibreOffice on the DVD and not install it by default. It just wastes user bandwidth (it has to be downloaded from the Internet later) and time. Office suite is something that 99% of users need. Also it is a regression from Fedora 17.

The problem is the current infrastructure doesn't allow for it to be
installed by default while remaining deselectable. While that might
get fixed, it's highly unlikely to get fixed for F18.
