Their position as described on that web page seems to be somewhat less
stringent than the GPL actually requires.  As it's their program, I suppose
they are within their rights to "turn a blind eye" if they wish to.

I would still hesitate to advise someone that they can merely tell people to
"look on openoffice.og for the source" because that's not what the license
actually says and the actual license has more effect than a simple position
statement on a website.
