Well, OK, I don't think we need to make a big case of it. One last 
remark though is that if we distance ourselves in this particular 
statement, then it becomes odd to me that we make reference to it when 
explaining the beginnings of the birth of LibreOffice. When asked about 
the origins of LibreOffice I explain the birth of LibreOffice startomg 
from StarOffice to OOo. I think that this approach has been used by many 
people.
