The English press release is here: http://www.osb-alliance.de/en/working-groups/projekte/major-features-in-loaoo/ That links to a PDF where they describe the requirements. On page 5 it says: "The code implementing the use cases must be delivered to OSBA in two versions: one suitable for LibreOffice integration, one suitable for Apache OpenOffice integration. That means each version of the code changes must be developed, rebased and tested against a commit of the respective project that is not older than 60 days at the time of the delivery." And then later on that page: "The contractor must publish the software source code developed for this project under license suitable for integration in the respective projects, ideally dual licensed Apache License Version 2.0, and Mozilla Public License Version 2.0. The contractor may choose to publish under Apache License Version 2.0 only." So it looks like regardless of who bids and wins, the results will be available for AOO to use as well.
