While that might be true to some extend for the Java ecosystem when not limited to the JVM alone, it has never been a reality for OpenOffice.org. Claiming otherwise is severely underestimating the contributions of Sun/Oracle. That does not mean the contributions of the community outside of Oracle have been small -- however, they up till now have never been comparable to the contributions of Oracle. see: http://www.c0t0d0s0.org/archives/6946-A-thought-about-the-recent-development-at-OpenOffice.html and the chart by Michael Meeks linked in it for reference.

Hi All, Such an event (not exactly but similarly) was also happened to Mambo when the management fights with the community. Here, in this case, it seems Oracle is not clearly understand how to handle community projects. They shows their lack of understanding on Open Source Community development issues by taking legal action against Google on use of Java at Android. Anyway, I wish someone @ Oracle can make things clear to the top management and figure things out to work with the community. But people @ Oracle should keep in mind that OpenOffice, Java MySQL are mainly developed by the help of community not by the people they employ. I am looking towards a day when LibreOffice OpenOffice can become one and Community Oracle will collaborate for the society.
