Maybe I am biased because of my role within the project, but I think

separate from emotions.
Anyway, my memory of OpenOffice.org is that it was a rather unhappy project,
repressed by Sun. LibreOffice seems to have much better morale and productivity.
Companies do not like communities, although they pretend to be nice to

Companies are used to hire and fire, and are less used to motivate (and
volunteers are attracted by motivation).
