this is because LibreOffice and the TDF are build on the contribution of the members. The people, which are doing the work, decide about the things they are doing for LO and the TDF. But you yourself had to decide first, what you want to contribute to which community (OOo or LO). We need people who are doing the daily work. We need not another mega- thread on this list.
