Ouch, that's a bit harsh. Of course it is Collabora's choice--but equally "Devs
decide" is a reasonable mantra--long followed and supported in the project--for
the broader community. We certainly don't want Collabora's efforts to diverge
from master needlessly.

I don't agree with Eyal's naive perception that the project is overly bound by
"process", but there are reasonable questions as to adoption/participation in
FOSS projects supporting OOXML (ISO/IEC 29500) interests over ODF.  

Font support choices are a sore point for many in the community, and this
bundling came from "out of the blue", so I get the concern and would love a
comment on what drove the commit.

But frankly I'm much more concerned with the lack of progress on an 'Aptos'
substitute.

@Heiko, you set this to NEW but I've reverted that as I don't see that a revert
of  https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/169765 needs to happen.
