Indeed it was; most distributions actually shipped "OpenOffice Go",
which was Sun/Oracle's OpenOffice plus quite a collection of patches
written by people that did not want to assign copyright.

The very first thing LibreOffice did was say "Thank you" and apply them.
So it is possible that you do not notice much difference on the first
release.

Personally I expect this to be like the XFree86 -> X.Org fork, with all
the activity happening on the fork and the old version forgotten like a
bad dream within a year. (If not earlier)
