As I recall, OOo-1.1 was a request from the fedora list that was
approved, and not in the original plan. Same with 2.4. GNOME 2.3 was the
plan originally, and by request of people on the list (it was then the
RHL Project list) the change was made to 2.4 and this delayed the
release date by a couple weeks.

The point is it was changed by people on this list making a case for it,
and people at RH listening to the new community.
