One of the primary catalysts for the fork is that Oracle insists on contributors signing a copyright license agreement that grants rights to Oracle to sell a proprietary version of Openoffice.org. They wouldn't want to use code from LibreOffice. As both codebases are visible, it is not possible that LibreOffice developers would be unaware if there was a flow in the other direction. Also, Openoffice.org probably has a higher count of full time developers. Libreoffice however has the strategic advantage because LibreOffice can continue to inherit code from Openoffice but not the other way around because of Oracle's policies.
