I don't want to repeat myself, so please have a look at the mail I sent 
to the dev@native-lang OOo list:
http://native-lang.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=dev&msgNo=9323

In short: None of the Oracle people is allowed to force any community 
member to retreat nor remove any of their roles.

There have been general rules established in the OpenOffice.org project 
for such actions - mainly based on votes inside the relevant projects or 
decisions at the Community Council with a common agreement of the nine 
other members if one of them should be removed.

Everything else would prove Oracle not to respect the OpenOffice.org 
community - I'm not quite sure which way they want to go...

Best regards

Bernhard
