I can only explain my view on this. I am an AOO committer because people
use AOO. And more often then not they are aware on the market, and they
did decide on Apache OpenOffice.
I have used LibreOffice on Linux fairly often over the past 12 years and
occasionally on the Mac (my main computer), but I prefer OpenOffice on the Mac.
