No, I didn't take your words as confrontational; I hope you didn't take me that way, either. We all have our preferences, and use whatever tools work best for us. I do wish that LibreOffice and OpenOffice could somehow patch up their differences and agree to collaborate. I don't know the whole story there, but it is apparent that the two communities are at odds. And I can see, from the perspective of a developer, or somebody close enough to the devs, how the LibreOffice community might feel slighted. If they are doing the actual work, while OpenOffice benefits from that work without acknowledging it, then things do look out of balance. When I joined the OpenOffice mailing list, I thought that I might learn what's really going on, so that it might help me it getting it to run properly on my system. But frankly, their mailing list reads like it is written by ghosts, zombies or bots. Honestly, it seems like nothing is happening there. I read their posts, but they make no sense. By comparison, the TDE mailing list is reads like transcripts of a group of gossipy old women, down by the stream with their tubs and washboards and scrub brushes. Be that as it may, and despite what is fair or right: OpenOffice actually still *works* for me; LibreOffice doesn't.
