For Pete's Sake! Haven't you been keeping up with the news? (old
news). Most developers ditched OO.org because their cough cough great
parent company was causing more problems than they resolved.
LibreOffice forked with a open source and group run mentality. No more
corporate crap. Steadily they've been whittling away at the cruft of
years and years of badly written code and to much damned Java. Then
Oracle ditches OO.org to apache who for some inexplicable reason takes
the project on. Down with Open Office! *

Using OO.org would be like sending patches to the xfree86 project.
