I actually thought IBM was very close to forking it for that reason.
But given the size in MB of IBMs Office Suite offering i am not sure i
want their fork.

IBM forked OOo back in 2003/4 and create a product called Workplace. This was a messaging document interface. Then they also launched another product called Symfony.

Another fork is the one from RedOffice which implements a different set of tools for the chineese market including an interface.

Go-oo is also a different kind of fork since they only want to make adjustments to novell technology that said it seems that goal is moving to a complete fork of the UI according to this discussion.
