Hi
I championed OO/LO and got a strong response that claimed
it was "veery buggy." (the double "e" is from a quote).
I don't know...

Remember one of the things we all like about open source is the vast
amount
of options we get.
Personally I use Libre Office, gnome planner, evolution, firefox,
gimp and
for development I use .net studio on windows and mono on linux. I
love the
choices available
+1, I can't agree more...
For project management I use...
- taskcoach: http://taskcoach.org/
- gnome time tracker: http://gnotime.sourceforge.net/
- gnome planner: http://live.gnome.org/Planner
- libreoffice calc: home-made spreadsheet
if I wanted gantt charts and other such things, there are
- taskjuggler: http://www.taskjuggler.org/
- openproj: http://openproj.org/
All in all there are quite a few alternatives around, even if you
still use Windows as your operating system.
As Bruce said, none need to be bundled with libreoffice per sa
I have been using OO/LO for several years now in production and I have
found it to be no more buggy than the various Windows Office alternatives.
The only time I have come to grief is when trying to share data between
users not using OO/LO, otherwise I have been able to make extremely
complex spreadsheets and reports that none of my clients are aware were
made using LO/OO.
Note, I serve out all my products as PDF documents, or supply my users
with files in older formats (e.g. Office 2000 documents).
