I don't like "as a fork of OOo", and I would rather prefer "based on
OOo source code". Of course, the concept of the fork is correct, but
as the reality is that every flavour of the legacy StarOffice source
code is now a fork (AOOo is more of a fork than LibreOffice) I would
avoid to label LibreOffice as such.
Thanks for your comment. I have changed the paragraph to:
"LibreOffice (http://www.libreoffice.org/) is a free and open-source
office suite based on the OpenOffice.org source code. It is a
community-driven project of The Document Foundation. The Document
Foundation was formed in September 2010 and has released several new
versions of LibreOffice since that time. New code in LibreOffice is

Best regards,
Christophe
