Good point. Judging from http://www.documentfoundation.org/supporters/ , which apparently includes Novell and most everybody, they got their ducks in a row.

However, not everybody seems thrilled at http://planet.go-oo.org/ ...

P.S. more coverage over at http://lwn.net

You forgot Red Hat and Canonical, although I don't know how much they contribute compared to Novell.

Go-OO is maintained as a series of patches which can be applied independently by distributions to add or remove features; this is intended to replace the OOo project entirely.

Or, to try and use a historical analogy, this is the tipping point from 'a patchy server' to Apache.
