[FOSDEM] [CFP] Apache OpenOffice Devroom

[James]

Hey FOSDEM,

I might not be in the know, so please forgive the perhaps dumb question, but

Why are we having an Apache open office devroom? Wasn't AOO most
deprecated in favour of libreoffice? And if not, wouldn't a more
general "office/word processing suite" room be more sensible?

Thanks!
