-1 (non-binding) This proposal is for the hosting of all OpenOffice.org services by the ASF, and mandates for items such as marketing, documentation and localisation which are not core competencies of the ASF. Moreover, the ASF has no other project like OOo that focuses on end-users. Furthermore, existing ASF developers have little or no prior exposure to the OOo codebase due to the licensing issue. It would make sense for the ASF to focus on an ODF reference implementation instead of undertaking the whole of OpenOffice.org, as the FSF recommends, http://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-recommendations.html I believe that the ASF will be overwhelmed by the sheer amount of diverse effort that is required, if this proposal passes. Any development effort should join LibreOffice and the TDF (The Document Foundation) which gained already the attention of the community.
