(...) Hum... I wouldn't call that "a feature" but "a different behaviour" :-) Anyway, I'm afraid the full list of changes is not going to be available under Wikipedia but on every project changelog or in their respectives bug tracking systems. OTOH, from what I've read, one thing it turned nuts developers who participated in OOo development was the long time it took Sun to apply the pacthes upstream, so they finally forked to avoid such situation. I suppose there are more things that lead to that but I prefer keeping away from bureaucratic companies (as can be Oracle or Sun) as much as I can.
