+1. I don't at all object to having Apache OpenOffice available again,
if people want it, but I am skeptical about marketing it as "leading".
If that can be objectively demonstrated by some metric (it may well
surpass LibreOffice counting Windows downloads, I do not know), then the
language can stay. But repeating unproven assertions of fact in feature
marketing and messaging does not seem to me to be a good idea.
