Nice article. The summary at the end is: "The choice boils down to how they're implemented and how well their features and development cycles match user needs. LibreOffice has the edge in terms of regular updates, but OpenOffice releases feel meticulously polished. If you want cutting-edge feature sets, go with LibreOffice. If you want the most refined versions of the features available, go with OpenOffice. Both are free, so at least you don't have to choose based on price." The interesting thing to remember here is that it is not possible to "cherry pick" quality. Quality is not something you get from taking patches and applying them to LO. Quality comes from the totality of what we do. It is holistic. It comes from the process as much as the code. So although we hear claims that LO can just take whatever they want from AOO (which they are welcome to do, from my perspective) they will never achieve the same level of quality unless they work closely with us.
