As a concerned user, if LibreOffice is meant a independent office project

Not now. The programme is not very different from OpenOffice. As long as it feels like OpenOffice, I think that calling it "version 1" would be a throw back in history. Many folks would think they are much better with OpenOffice... it is at version 3.3, after all.

When (if) a new user interface is developed, then it will be very easy to sell that the new LibreOffice 1 is an entirely new program.
