Actually I believe that the 3.3 release process should not be taken as a reference at all, but LibreOffice is definitely not slower, it's faster; it merely started the RC phase later. Here are the relevant RC dates: 2010-11-29 OpenOffice.org RC7 2010-12-05 LibreOffice 3.3.0 RC1 2010-12-17 OpenOffice.org RC8 2010-12-23 LibreOffice 3.3.0 RC2 2011-01-13 LibreOffice 3.3.0 RC3 2011-01-14 OpenOffice.org RC9 2011-01-20 LibreOffice 3.3.0 RC4 2011-01-21 OpenOffice.org RC10 so the average lifespan of a Release Candidate in this period was 18 days for OpenOffice.org and 15 days for LibreOffice. Then I should repeat that the 3.3 release process was definitely not standard on either side, so a comparison like this one will make more sense in future releases.
