For a project to have a great community, it needs to catch the user eye, for example Firefox. Firefox seduced the a community with its quality, KOffice in the other hand is an abobination, a low quality project and I could go on, so how about realising a functional project first and ask for community support later?

what's so extremely bad about it? True, it has seen some less stable releases a few years ago, and tables have never worked properly in KWord. I haven't used KSpread that much, but KWord works fine for me. I can write two essays in the time OO.o starts, and I don't want to use software which is so clearly crap. True, KOffice is far from perfect, many components aren't that great, but it also has a few parts that are better than even many commercial components, like Kexi and Krita.

And if you had even a small look at what's coming for KOffice 2.0, you'd think very different.

Or maybe you DID have a look, and you're afraid your petproject, be it OO.o or Abiword/Gnumeric/etc are gonna bite the dust?
