I think there would be a huge response from the community to having LibO 
packages prepped for their distro and available at libreoffice.org.  The 
problem with letting the distro packagers do it is that they do a big 
push up to prepare for their distro release, but they don't typically 
push out an OOo update when it becomes available -- they often wait for 
the next release of their distro.

By prepping packages ourselves, I think we'll find that we get a lot 
more immediate downloads from the user community, and quicker feedback 
on bugs.
