I've lurked this specific argument in the dev/steering discuss/French  
mailing lists when you were commenting Meeks's statement.

Now, I'm working with other people on this project:

http://www.mail-archive.com/projects@libreoffice.org/msg00241.html

During a lengthy and indeed very interesting discussion with Italo  
Vignoli, Andrea Pescetti and others in the Italian discuss mailing list  
(for people who knows Italian:  
http://www.mail-archive.com/discuss@it.libreoffice.org/msg00104.html ) , I  
finally wondered: will the relashionship between the Community LibO  
*product* and the commercially supported ones (Novell/Canonical/Red  
Hat/put-here-your-preferred-corporation) be like the relationship between  
Fedora Project Linux, a cutting edge and less stable version of Red Hat  
Enterprise Linux, a very solid and corporate oriented linux distribution  
based on Fedora?

I haven't a sure answer yet, but Andrea Pescetti pointed me to these Meeks  
messages:

http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice/2011-May/011424.html
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice/2011-April/011153.html

and to the extremely important "Breathing Master" discussion here:

http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice/2011-May/thread.html

Those comments and discussions + yours + the relatively scarce news I know  
about the LibO/TDF new business model based on paid certification for  
support corporation, let me think that a Community Libo "cutting edge"  
product is here to stay and may be a part of that business model.

Well, *if* it's so, I'm simply not happy of such solution. It creates a  
viable open ecosystem around LibO, for sure, but undermines the proverbial  
rock solid stability I always experienced in OOo.

Just my 2 eurocents, of course. ;-)

Regards,

Gianluca
