I want OO.o support, not Go-OO from Novell - Any statement from Fedora or RedHat?

Granted, I'm new to Fedora, but am I missing something here?  I have
default install of F14, and I wanted to install LibreOffice but it
didn't come up in the repos.  I tried installing it via instructions I
found on the web, so I gave up and installed OpenOffice (which did, in
fact, show up in the repos).

I WANT LibreOffice, but can't find an easy way to install it.
