Suggestion to make some changes in the source code of OpenOffice

Components

Apache OpenOffice is an opensource office software suite for word processing, spreadsheets, presentations, graphics, databases and more. it is fantastic alternative of microsoft office and It is also available in many languages and works on all common systems.

Proposal

According to my knowledge LibreOffice was forked from OpenOffice but i observe that code licensing of each suite is different from each other in such a way that it hurt openoffice, now the problem is that updates to OpenOffice source code can be added into LibreOffice automatically but updates to LibreOffice source code cannot be added into OpenOffice. This is the main reason why user's prefer LibreOffice over OpenOffice, so i suggest bring in some changes in source code so that it catch
updates of libreoffice automatically.

Mockups / Examples

This is a suggestion to make some improvements in source code of the program and only source code developer's can do it, so i unable to produce visual images.

Benefits

The principal advantage of this improvement is that it optimize the user experience and secondly it also catch more client's as peoples find OpenOffice very similar to LibreOffice. When openoffice make this improvement then all advanced tool's of libreoffice become available in openoffice and they won't need to add advanced tool's separately. When openoffice add this feature then user's able to use all advance and updated functions directly in openoffice and they won't need to use any third party software, this induction will also save precious time of user's.
