I was wondering the same when coming back from FOSDEM and greeting the
volunteers who had been serving at the LibreOffice booth with "See you
at... ?".

The OOoCon 2011 organization is still in the hands of Charles Schultz
(i.e., a TDF Steering Committee member) as far as I know; at least, he
was taking responsibility for it at the end of OOoCon 2010 and I haven't
seen any statement from him saying the OOoCon Paris is canceled.

Moreover, OOoCon has always been a place to discuss anything related to
OpenOffice.org in its broadest meaning (including ODF, including
interesting presentations and even keynotes about derived products such
as Symphony, RedOffice, Go-OO, NeoOffice, OOo4Kids...), so I don't see
anything preventing LibreOffice from being one of the "stars" at OOoCon
2011.

Needless to say, I know nothing about what happened at CeBit; but
sharing a booth at a fair seems a totally different issue than the
annual family gathering.

Regards,
  Andrea.
