I liked the part where he said that a hard fork was not a solution...and then talks favorably about the name change of OpenOffice to LibreOffice with a fork.

If the developers won't bend to the will of the users, you can't force them. Do what we've always done in that situation: make a fork. I'm sure if it's that important to so many people, it can be done.
