[libreoffice-marketing] Regarding FreeOffice in Manjaro

Dear Team,

I am a user of Manjaro for more than three years. I am very happy about it. The team behind Manjaro 
believes on convenience over freedom many times and their point of view is acceptable for me. They 
gave all the options to user to choose between the various alternatives (including proprietary 
ones) to some extend. There are two things that happened in Manjaro, recently which were went 
against Libreoffice.
1. Due to large size of LO, they moved out the LO from minimal iso.
2. They provide FreeOffice in their iso. Mainly planned to give a option between LO and FreeOffice 
during installation. This decision came up in the wake of new partnership between Manjaro and 
Softmaker. Both of them originates from same place and Softmaker went to Manjaro and made this 
partnership. There are mixed response from the community regarding the adoption of FreeOffice.
The point is that LibreOffice needs to work more to keep it in GNU/Linux distro also. We may need 
to reach out to the various distro teams and work out the deal / partnership.
Anybody can visit forum.manjaro.org (in General Discussions) to read more about the community 
reactions on this issue.

Sincerely,
Sreekanth V K
