Also, since Apache took over OpenOffice.org and put it out of incubation, it seems the development has been progressing rather well and in a different direction than LibreOffice. While both started from the same point, they're going to be different office suites with different feature sets, different UIs, different devs, etc. I think it's beneficial to provide Fedora users with the choice of installing either, or even both, provided there's enough interest among the devs to make it so. From a user point of view, I think the main manpower for F19 should go into getting it into repos and solving *all* conflicts. They should be parallel installable and should not conflict even at runtime with each other. Especially the runtime conflicts would be really confusing to (some of) our users. With regards, Martin
