I don't see how they've been very successful in the past - currently
still >95% of new OpenOffice code is developed by Sun - they have been
sucessful getting attention for beeing real open-source but I guess it
did not save a lot of developer resoures.
I hope it will be different for OpenJDK, once they've set up their
infrastructure because I think its easier to atract devs working on
dev-tools than devs working on an Office suite ;)

Here I have to agree :)
