I think this is taking out of context. RMS don't want to fork it but FSF. RMS might want to not use Java all together. However the GCJ project is under the FSF with another leader developer and I think HE might be the one who want to push GCJ into the core of OOo.
RedHat and Debian also has been working for extracting the Java dependency without breaking OOo.

I thought people might be interested in this link. It seems the RMS wants to fork OpenOffice.org due to its reliance on JDK.
Thoughts,
Kevin
