Ha, ha, ha, ha!  You got that geezer on that one!

LO is a derivative of StarOffice which had its origin as
Germany proprietary software way back in 1985.  It has
absolutely no relation to the GNU project.

Furthermore, GNU does not require an office suite.  Any office
software is just a crutch for idiots.  Any functionality that
an office package contains can be better accomplished through
other means -- and GNU provides plenty of those.
